JILA team demonstrates model system for distribution of more accurate time signals
(PHYSorg.com Physics)

JILA physicists and collaborators have demonstrated the first next-generation `time scale`-a system that incorporates data from multiple atomic clocks to produce a single highly accurate timekeeping signal for distribution. The JILA time scale outperforms the best existing hubs for disseminating official time worldwide and offers the possibility of providing more accurate time to millions of customers such as financial markets and computer and phone networks.
