In an international first, scientists have produced a Bose-Einstein condensate of the alkaline-earth element strontium. Choosing the isotope 84Sr, which has received little attention so far, proved to ...
An optical clock based on neutral strontium atoms is considered to be a leading candidates for definition a "new" second. The clock’s frequency can now be determined more accurately - by up to an ...
In an international first, scientists from the Institute of Quantum Optics and Quantum Information (IQOQI) produced a Bose-Einstein condensate of the alkaline-earth element strontium, thus narrowly ...
