Comparing a mercury optical lattice clock with microwave and optical frequency standards

In this paper we report the evaluation of an optical lattice clock based on neutral mercury with a relative uncertainty of $1.7\times {10}^{-16}$ . Comparing this characterized frequency standard to a ^133 Cs atomic fountain we determine the absolute frequency of the ${}^{1}{{\rm{S}}}_{0}\to {}^{3}{...
