Eliot Bohr introduces new time measurement technique using atoms
Interesting Engineering — April 23, 2024, 04:00 PM UTC
Summary: Eliot Bohr, descendant of physicist Niels Bohr, introduces a new time measurement technique using "superradiant atoms" for precise second measurement. This innovation aims to surpass limitations of existing atomic clocks, crucial for maintaining global time accuracy. With over 400 atomic clocks globally, oscillations are key for precise timekeeping.
