Long-time Slashdot reader jrronimo says JILA physicist Jun Ye's group"has made a breakthrough towards the next stage of precision timekeeping." From their paper recently published to arXiv: Optical atomic clocks use electronic energy levels to precisely keep track of time. A clock based on nuclear energy levels promises a next-generation platform for precision metrology and fundamental physics studies....
