TL;DR: Tests of local position invariance and the variation of fundamental constants from measurements of the frequency ratio of the 282-nm 199Hg+ optical clock transition to the ground state hyperfine splitting in 133Cs show results similar to those reported for the absolute optical frequency measurements in H and 171Yb+ vs other 133Cs standards.
Journal ArticleDOI
NIST-F1: recent improvements and accuracy evaluations
TL;DR: In the last several years, many improvements to NIST-F1 (a laser-cooled Cs fountain primary frequency standard at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in Boulder, Colorado) resulted in a reduction by over a factor of 2 in the uncertainty of the realization of the SI second as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report the first accuracy evaluation of NIST-F2, a second-generation laser-cooled caesium fountain primary standard developed at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) with a cryogenic (liquid nitrogen) microwave cavity and flight region.
