Nuclear clock: History, Applications & Standards

A nuclear clock or nuclear optical clock is an atomic clock which uses photons from a nuclear isomeric transition as its reference frequency, instead of the atomic electron transition energy used by conventional atomic clocks. Such a clock is expected to be more precise than the best current atomic clocks by a factor of about 10, with an achievable…
