Roto-translational optomechanics
M. Rademacher, A. Pontin, J. M. H. Gosling +2
Levitated optomechanics, the interaction between light and small levitated objects, is a new macroscopic quantum system that is being used as a testing ground for fundamental physi…
Testing Dissipative Collapse Models with a Levitated Micromagnet
A. Vinante, G. Gasbarri, C. Timberlake +2
We present experimental tests of dissipative extensions of spontaneous wave function collapse models based on a levitated micromagnet with ultralow dissipation. The spherical micro…
Photon bunching in a rotating reference frame
Sara Restuccia, Marko Toros, Graham M. Gibson +3
Although quantum physics is well understood in inertial reference frames (flat spacetime), a current challenge is the search for experimental evidence of non-trivial or unexpected…
Optimal control for feedback cooling in cavityless levitated optomechanics
Luca Ferialdi, Ashley Setter, Marko Toroš +2
We consider feedback cooling in a cavityless levitated optomechanics setup, and we investigate the possibility to improve the feedback implementation. We apply optimal control theo…
Testing collapse models with levitated nanoparticles: the detection challenge
A. Vinante, A. Pontin, M. Rashid +3
We consider a nanoparticle levitated in a Paul trap in ultrahigh cryogenic vacuum, and look for the conditions which allow for a stringent noninterferometric test of spontaneous co…
Precession Motion in Levitated Optomechanics
Muddassar Rashid, Marko Toroš, Ashley Setter +1
We investigate experimentally the dynamics of a non-spherical levitated nanoparticle in vacuum. In addition to translation and rotation motion, we observe the light torque-induced…
