Nicknamed the “antique district,” downtown Clintonville’s 500-foot stretch of High Street — home to Eclectiques Antique Mall, Timporium, Euro Classics Antiques and more — demonstrates that secondhand ...

At its most basic, it’s a frame with a foundation that’s made up of a solid base or one that uses wooden or metal slats, allowing it to accommodate a mattress without a box spring. In smaller ...

In a collaboration between the University of Queensland, Australia, and Germany's metrology institute (Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt, PTB), the team used data from atomic clocks and cavity ...

The ion trap of the new In+/Yb+-crystal clock in its vacuum chamber. The Ions are trapped in the gap that can be seen in the middle of the picture between the gold electrodes (target). A shown-up ...

The next generation of atomic clocks “ticks” at the frequency of a laser. That is around 100,000 times faster than the microwave frequencies of the caesium clocks that currently generate the second.

Timekeeping has always been fundamental to human civilization. From ancient sundials to mechanical clocks and modern atomic optical timekeepers, each innovation has brought greater precision. Now, a ...

A wise man once told me that there is no policy without politics. I’d amend that absolute a bit: In a democracy, relatively few governmental initiatives go forward simply and entirely on their merits.

The next generation of atomic clocks "ticks" with the frequency of a laser. This is about 100,000 times faster than the microwave frequencies of the cesium clocks which are generating the second ...

BRAUNSCHWEIG, Germany — Time measurement is entering a new era. The next generation of atomic clocks uses laser light instead of microwaves to track time, oscillating about 100,000 times faster than ...

Researchers have developed a new approach in optical atomic clocks that brings forth a major goal in science: the redefinition of a second. The fundamental unit of time could soon be based on ...

Mb6 atomic timekeeping, auto LED, 5 Daily Alarms (4 one-time and 1 snooze alarm), 1/10-second stop watch, countdown timer, day/date/month calendar, and buckle closure Water resistant to 660 feet ...
