Continuous Acceleration Sensing Using Optomechanical Droplets
arXiv:2403.14330 · doi:10.3390/atoms12030015
Abstract
We show that a Bose--Einstein Condensate illuminated by a far off-resonant optical pump field and its retroreflection from a feedback mirror can produce stable, localised structures known as optomechanical droplets. We show that these droplets could be used to measure the acceleration of a BEC via continuous monitoring of the position of the droplet via the optical intensity distribution.
