Photo: Niels Bohr's research notes for his new atomic theory Rutherford's find came from a very strange experience. Everyone at that time imagined the atom as a "plum pudding." That is, it was roughly ...
Early yesterday morning, NASA launched a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket into orbit with a hodgepodge of science missions aboard. One of the most intriguing payloads was a clock, which will tick along for ...

A group of physicists has stared at 12 atomic clocks located in the United Kingdom, France, the United States, Germany, and Italy from 1999 to 2014. Eight of these clocks are one of the most precise ...
This is an introduction to the May 2023 Innovation article, “New type on the block: Generating high-precision orbits for GPS III satellites.” While I’m likely preaching to the choir here, GNSS cannot ...
Exoplanetary research is a hot commodity among astronomers. Not only can it teach us more about planetary formation and the birth of our solar system, but it can also open our eyes to another world’s ...
A toaster-sized atomic clock orbiting Earth is 25 times more accurate than existing space clocks and will soon be tested on a mission to Venus. The highly accurate timepiece could improve navigation ...
THE arrangement of the non-nuclear electrons in the atom is being determined by work along two lines: first, from the Bohr-Summerfeld theory of characteristic frequencies, and, secondly, from the ...
