BOULDER, Colo. — A new cesium fountain atomic clock at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in Boulder is making time more accurate by fractions of a second. It took a team of ...

A new atomic clock is one of the world’s best timekeepers, researchers say — and after years of development, the “fountain”-style clock is now in use helping keep official U.S. time. Known ...

The agency’s first fountain clock, NIST-F1, began ticking in the late 1990s and served for over 15 years. But in 2016, after a move to a new building, it faltered.

According to scientists at NIST in Boulder, their newest atomic clock, the NIST-F4, will help track time more precisely and help put global time on a more accurate frequency.

NIST-F4 is a cesium fountain clock, which is considered the cream of the crop — there are fewer than 20 of its kind operating in the entire world. Fountain clocks are not constantly running like ...

The clock is based on a "fountain" design that represents the gold standard of accuracy in timekeeping. NIST-F4 ticks at such a steady rate that if it had started running 100 million years ago, when ...
