Airborne absolute gravimetry with a quantum sensor, comparison with classical technologies

Yannick Bidel, Nassim Zahzam, Alexandre Bresson +14

We report an airborne gravity survey with an absolute gravimeter based on atom interferometry and two relative gravimeters: a classical LaCoste\&Romberg (L\&R) and a novel iMAR str…

An atom interferometer driven by a picosecond frequency comb

Cyrille Solaro, Clément Debavelaere, Pierre Cladé +1

We demonstrate a light-pulse atom interferometer based on the diffraction of free-falling atoms by a picosecond frequency-comb laser. More specifically, we coherently split and rec…

Improving the statistical analysis of anti-hydrogen free fall by using near edge events

Olivier Rousselle, Pierre Cladé, Saïda Guellati-Khélifa +2

An accurate evaluation of the gravity acceleration from the timing of free fall of anti-hydrogen atoms in the GBAR experiment requires to account for obstacles surrounding the anti…

Analysis of the timing of freely falling antihydrogen

Olivier Rousselle, Pierre Cladé, Saïda Guellati-Khélifa +2

We evaluate the accuracy to be expected for the measurement of free fall acceleration of antihydrogen in the GBAR experiment, accounting for the recoil transferred in the photodeta…

State of the art in the determination of the fine structure constant and the ratio

Pierre Cladé, François Nez, François Biraben +1

The fine structure constant and the ratio between the Planck constant and the unified atomic mass are keystone constants for the determination of other funda…
