Briefings

A Nature article from October 2026 reports that nuclear clocks using atomic nuclei transitions are ready for the first time, promising to serve as a next-generation time standard and a tool for probing fundamental physics.

Key points

• Nature published an article on October 7, 2026, confirming that nuclear clocks using atomic nuclei transitions are ready for the first time.
• These clocks are expected to function as a next-generation time standard and a tool for probing fundamental physics.

Context

Nuclear clocks use transitions in atomic nuclei to keep time, showing promise as a next-generation time standard and for probing fundamental physics.

Limitations
