IRIS Metals Limited (ASX: IR1), an exploration company focused on pegmatite-hosted critical minerals, has announced ...

Lithium has been the apple of the mining industry’s eye as demand for electric vehicle batteries has skyrocketed. Now, the investment in lithium extraction is spilling over to include rubidium, ...

Rubidium could be the next key player in oxide-ion conductors. Researchers at the Institute of Science Tokyo have discovered ...

Rubidium is a silvery-white and very soft metal — and one of the most highly reactive elements on the periodic table. Rubidium has a density about one and a half times that of water and is solid at ...

One of the less-than-pleasant facts of life in quantum mechanics is that the act of measuring will change the item that has been measured. The reality is that we don’t often run up against this limit.

Rubidium could be the next key player in oxide-ion conductors. Researchers have discovered a rare rubidium (Rb)-containing oxide-ion conductor with exceptionally high conductivity. Identified through ...

International Lithium Corp. (TSXV: ILC) (OTCQB: ILHMF) (FSE: IAH) (the "Company" or "ILC") is pleased to announce that all ...

Rubidium (Rb) was discovered in 1861 by physicist Gustav Kirchhoff — perhaps better known for his work on electrical circuits — together with chemist Robert Bunsen, in Heidelberg. Using their newly ...

Remember me: The University of Basel lab where the rubidium vapour cell quantum memory was developed. The vapour cell is at the centre, protected by magnetic shielding. (Courtesy: Gianni Buser) ...

Robert Bunsen and Gustav Kirchhoff discovered the element Rubidium in 1861 with the help of a spectroscope while analyzing a mineral called lepidolite. When the mineral was heated, Bunsen and ...

A rubidium standard, or rubidium atomic clock, is a high accuracy frequency and time standard, usually accurate to within a few parts in 10 11. This is still several orders of magnitude less than some ...

You know when you dial a number, and a man reads you the exact time at the tone? That precise timekeeping starts at the Naval Observatory in Washington, D.C. NPR's Linda Wertheimer takes a tour. We're ...
