A fibered laser system for the MIGA large scale atom interferometer

D. O. Sabulsky, J. Junca, G. Lefèvre +12

We describe the realization and characterization of a compact, autonomous fiber laser system that produces the optical frequencies required for laser cooling, trapping, manipulatio…

Loading and Cooling in an Optical Trap via Hyperfine Dark States

D. S. Naik, H. Eneriz-Imaz, M. Carey +5

We present a novel optical cooling scheme that relies on hyperfine dark states to enhance loading and cooling atoms inside deep optical dipole traps. We demonstrate a seven-fold in…

Exploring the Foundations of the Universe with Space Tests of the Equivalence Principle

Baptiste Battelier, Joël Bergé, Andrea Bertoldi +34

We present the scientific motivation for future space tests of the equivalence principle, and in particular the universality of free fall, at the level or better. Two po…

AEDGE: Atomic Experiment for Dark Matter and Gravity Exploration in Space

Yousef Abou El-Neaj, Cristiano Alpigiani, Sana Amairi-Pyka +129

We propose in this White Paper a concept for a space experiment using cold atoms to search for ultra-light dark matter, and to detect gravitational waves in the frequency range bet…

All-Optical Bose-Einstein Condensates in Microgravity

Gabriel Condon, Martin Rabault, Brynle Barrett +8

We report on the all-optical production of Bose-Einstein condensates in microgravity using a combination of grey molasses cooling, light-shift engineering and optical trapping in a…

Concept study and preliminary design of a cold atom interferometer for space gravity gradiometry

A. Trimeche, B. Battelier, D. Becker +14

We study a space-based gravity gradiometer based on cold atom interferometry and its potential for the Earth's gravitational field mapping. The instrument architecture has been pro…
