Zeptoseconds: New world record in short-term measurement
In 1999, Egyptian chemist Ahmed Zewail received the Nobel Prize for measuring the speed with which molecules change shape. He founded femtochemistry with ultrashort laser flashes: the formation and breaking of chemical bonds takes place in the femtosecond range. One femtosecond is equal to 0.000000000000001 seconds or 10-15 seconds.
