Nuclear Clocks Pave the Way for Revolutionary Timekeeping
In a groundbreaking development, an international research team has propelled atomic clocks into a new era by utilizing nuclear transitions in atomic scandium instead of electronic transitions. Conducted at the European X-Ray Free-Electron Laser facility, this advance is poised to usher in a thousandfold increase in timekeeping precision, as detailed in the journal Nature.
