Measurement of the Hydrogen 1 S - 2 S Transition Frequency by Phase Coherent Comparison with a Microwave Cesium Fountain Clock

TL;DR: An absolute frequency measurement of the hydrogen 1S-2S two-photon transition in a cold atomic beam with an accuracy of 1.8 parts in 10(14) Hz is reported on.
Journal ArticleDOI

New limits on the drift of fundamental constants from laboratory measurements.

TL;DR: The absolute 1S-2S transition frequency nu(H) in atomic hydrogen is remeasured and separate limits on alpha/alpha=(-0.9+/-2.9) x 10(-15) yr(-1) and the fractional time variation of the ratio of Rb and Cs nuclear magnetic moments mu(Rb)/mu(Cs) equal to (-0.5+/-1.7) provides information on the temporal behavior of the constant of strong interaction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Experimental realization of an optical second with strontium lattice clocks.

TL;DR: An important step in the direction of a possible new definition of the second is presented, and two state-of-the-art strontium optical lattice clocks are proven to agree within their accuracy budget, with a total uncertainty of 1.5 × 10(-16).
Journal ArticleDOI

Cold atom clocks and applications

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe advances in microwave frequency standards using laser-cooled atoms at BNM-SYRTE, which lead to a frequency stability of 2 × 10−16 at 50'000 s for primary standards.
