Atomic clocks execute periodic corrections of a 'classical' quartz crystal oscillator, by comparison to an atomic quantum reference, namely a precise hyperfine transition frequency. This periodic calibration has a surprising noise-inducing effect called aliasing. In fact, this sampling effect is mathematically identical to visual digital aliasing. Many of the standard visual...
