For all our telescopes and colliders, dark matter has remained an elusive ghost for the better part of a century. It ...

The way time is measured is on the edge of a historic upgrade. At the heart of this change is a new kind of atomic clock that uses light instead of microwaves. This shift means timekeeping could ...

Archaeologists in China have dated dinosaur eggs for the first time, revealing the age of the ancient fossils, according to a ...

Atomic clocks record time using microwaves at a frequency matched to electron transitions in certain atoms. They are the basis upon which a second is defined. But there is a new kid on the block, the ...

The field of optical atomic clocks, in combination with ultracold atoms, has transformed precision timekeeping and metrology. By utilising laser-cooled atoms confined in optical lattices, researchers ...

It is the first time that dinosaur eggs have been dated using carbonate uranium-lead dating. The post New ‘atomic clock’ ...

Modern timekeeping relies on the accuracy of atomic clocks, which revolutionized timekeeping by using the quantum behavior of atoms to measure time. Discover how these incredibly precise clocks work, ...

What could be more exciting than finding a dinosaur egg? The tiny shells from which some of the largest animals ever to walk ...

Frequency Electronics, Inc. (FEI), a provider of precision timing and frequency technology, clarified a previous statement made during itsearnings callregarding anticipated revenue from its new TURbO ...

Jeep, Ram, Dodge, and Chrysler cars, plus Alfa Romeo, Maserati, and Fiat, are all about to get "hands-off, eyes-off" autonomous driving tech. Yes, you read that correctly, in the future, GPS could ...
