RosAT108
RosAT108 is a type of atomic clock developed by the Russian company Rosatom. It is designed to provide highly accurate timekeeping for various applications, including satellite navigation, telecommunications, and scientific research. The clock operates on the principle of atomic resonance, specifically utilizing the hyperfine transition of cesium-133 atoms. This transition occurs at a precise frequency of 9,192,631,770 Hz, which serves as the international standard for time measurement. RosAT108 clocks are known for their stability and accuracy, with typical frequency stabilities of better than 1 part in 10^13 over short periods. They are often used in space applications due to their robustness and resistance to environmental factors such as temperature and radiation. The clocks are typically housed in compact, rugged enclosures to ensure reliability in harsh conditions. RosAT108 has been employed in various Russian space missions, contributing to the precise timing required for satellite operations and data synchronization.
