Nuclear clocks arrive as a new tool for probing physics

Original: The age of nuclear clocks is here: A new tool for probing the laws of physics

Scientists have announced the arrival of nuclear clocks, a new class of timekeeping device based on energy transitions in atomic nuclei rather than electron shells. Reporting suggests these clocks could be far more stable than existing atomic clocks and may serve as instruments to test fundamental laws of physics, potentially probing whether constants of nature change over time.

Why now: New research marks a breakthrough in precision timekeeping with implications for testing fundamental physics.
