For the first time, a research team from the University of Cologne has observed the electron capture decay of technetium-98, ...
In 2024, TU Wien presented the world's first nuclear clock. Now it has been demonstrated that the technology can also be used ...
More than 40 researchers from international institutes collaborated to develop and implement a method that enables measurements with unprecedented precision. This sets new standards for theories and ...
A team of researchers in Austria has recently demonstrated that the world’s first nuclear clock could help answer whether the ...
The time is nigh for nuclear clocks. In a first, scientists have used a tabletop laser to bump an atomic nucleus into a higher energy state. It’s a feat that sets scientists on a path toward creating ...
In fusion, hydrogen isotopes are heated to extremely high temperatures until they form plasma – superheated, electrically ...
Nuclear chemists and nuclear physicists at the University of Cologne provide experimental proof of a long-suspected atomic decay pathway. The article ...
Atomic clocks are the most accurate timekeepers we have, losing only seconds across billions of years. But apparently that’s not accurate enough – nuclear clocks could steal their thunder, speeding up ...
Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent every weekday. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Atomic clocks have served as the world’s most precise means of ...
