Learn more about the AQuRA project

Folia, the media outlet for students and employees of the University of Amsterdam, recently had an interview with Florian Schreck and produced the short video to the right. This video was produced for iqClock, the predecessor project to AQuRA. Florian explains what an atomic clock is, why such clocks are so special, and how it is possible that the best ones only go wrong by one second compared to the age of the universe. (Video in English, subtitles in Dutch.) [2.5 minutes]
