[time-nuts] CS reservoir depletion

[J. Forster]

Magnus,

That's a very interesting paper. It has some interesting stuff on the
vacuum techniuque that's needed for Rb or more for Cs.

Do you know if anybody has actually built / is selling a Rb with a diode
light source, rather than the bulb?

Best,

-John
