By drastically reducing the chance of error, this work significantly reduces the infrastructure required for error correction ...

Ion trap experiment The existence of this new force would mean electrons in various isotopes experience slightly different total forces, resulting in tiny energy level shifts.

A clock built by a team led by researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has been estimated to ...

Optical clocks are typically evaluated on two levels — accuracy (how close a clock comes to measuring the ideal “true” time, ...
