Scientists have presented the first self-regulated nuclear clock, based on thorium-229, a breakthrough in precision timekeeping. Unlike existing atomic clocks, it uses a nuclear transition, making it less sensitive to environmental interference. Reports say the technology could also be used to test whether fundamental physical constants change over time and to search for dark matter.
Why now: The breakthrough combines record precision with potential applications in dark matter research, drawing attention from science readers.
