| Abstract | This award is funded in whole or in part under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (Public Law 117-2). General audience abstract: Optical atomic clocks are now the most precise and accurate tabletop measurement devices ever constructed by humankind, offering sensitivity to new and exotic physics. The PI has recently developed a new kind of atomic clock apparatus and has used it to demonstrate a comparison between two optical clocks at a precision below one part in 10^19. To give a sense of scal |
