First international comparison of fountain primary frequency standards via a long distance optical fiber link

J. Guéna, S. Weyers, M. Abgrall +25

We report on the first comparison of distant caesium fountain primary frequency standards (PFSs) via an optical fiber link. The 1415 km long optical link connects two PFSs at LNE-S…

A clock network for geodesy and fundamental science

C. Lisdat, G. Grosche, N. Quintin +32

Leveraging the unrivaled performance of optical clocks in applications in fundamental physics beyond the standard model, in geo-sciences, and in astronomy requires comparing the fr…

Experimenting an optical second with strontium lattice clocks

R. Le Targat, L. Lorini, Y. Le Coq +17

Progress in realizing the SI second had multiple technological impacts and enabled to further constraint theoretical models in fundamental physics. Caesium microwave fountains, rea…

Mid-IR frequency measurement using an optical frequency comb and a long-distance remote frequency reference

Bruno Chanteau, Olivier Lopez, Wei Zhang +6

We have built a frequency chain which enables to measure the absolute frequency of a laser emitting in the 28-31 THz frequency range and stabilized onto a molecular absorption line…

Laser locking to the 199Hg clock transition with 5.4x10^(-15)/sqrt(tau) fractional frequency instability

J. J. McFerran, D. V. Magalhaes, C. Mandache +5

With Hg atoms confined in an optical lattice trap in the Lamb-Dicke regime, we obtain a spectral line at 265.6 nm in which the full-width at half-maximum is <15Hz. Here we lock an…

Progress in Atomic Fountains at LNE-SYRTE

Jocelyne Guéna, Michel Abgrall, Daniele Rovera +10

We give an overview of the work done with the Laboratoire National de Métrologie et d'Essais-Systèmes de Référence Temps-Espace (LNE-SYRTE) fountain ensemble during the last five y…
