Hilbert Space Black Hole Analog: Unidirectional Transport without Driving
Elvira Bilokon, Valeriia Bilokon, Frank Großmann +2
Black holes permit matter to cross their event horizon in only one direction. We show that interacting bosons in optical lattices with asymmetric barrier exhibit an analogous pheno…
Quantum Gas Mixtures and Dual-Species Atom Interferometry in Space
Ethan R. Elliott, David C. Aveline, Nicholas P. Bigelow +24
The capability to reach ultracold atomic temperatures in compact instruments has recently been extended into space. Ultracold temperatures amplify quantum effects, while free-fall…
Exploring the limits of ultracold atoms in space
RJ Thompson, D. C. Aveline, Sheng-Wey Chiow +10
Existing space-based cold atom experiments have demonstrated the utility of microgravity for improvements in observation times and for minimizing the expansion energy and rate of a…
Perspectives and Opportunities: A Molecular Toolkit for Fundamental Physics and Matter Wave Interferometry in Microgravity
Jose P. D'Incao, Jason R. Williams, Naceur Gaaloul +5
The study of molecular physics using ultracold gases has provided a unique probe into the fundamental properties of nature and offers new tools for quantum technologies. In this ar…
Tunneling Gravimetry
Patrik Schach, Alexander Friedrich, Jason R. Williams +2
We examine the prospects of utilizing matter-wave Fabry-Pérot interferometers for enhanced inertial sensing applications. Our study explores such tunneling-based sensors for the me…
Cold Atoms in Space: Community Workshop Summary and Proposed Road-Map
Ivan Alonso, Cristiano Alpigiani, Brett Altschul +246
We summarize the discussions at a virtual Community Workshop on Cold Atoms in Space concerning the status of cold atom technologies, the prospective scientific and societal opportu…
A space-based quantum gas laboratory at picokelvin energy scales
Naceur Gaaloul, Matthias Meister, Robin Corgier +10
Ultracold quantum gases are ideal sources for high-precision space-borne sensing as proposed for Earth observation, relativistic geodesy and tests of fundamental physical laws as w…
Asymmetric Tunneling of Bose-Einstein Condensates
Dusty R. Lindberg, Naceur Gaaloul, Lev Kaplan +5
In his celebrated textbook, , Landau argued that, for single particle systems in 1D, tunneling probability remains the same for…
Observation of ultracold atomic bubbles in orbital microgravity
Ryan A. Carollo, David C. Aveline, Brendan Rhyno +7
Significant leaps in the understanding of quantum systems have been driven by the exploration of geometry, topology, dimensionality, and interactions with ultracold atomic ensemble…
Quenched Magneto-association of Ultracold Feshbach Molecules
Kirk Waiblinger, Jason R. Williams, Jose P. D'Incao
We study enhanced magneto-association of atoms into weakly-bound molecules near a Feshbach resonance using a quench preparatory stage. In anticipation of experiments with NASA's Co…
Generating 500 mW for laser cooling of strontium atoms by injection locking a high power laser diode
Vladimir Schkolnik, Jason R. Williams, Nan Yu
We report on the generation of 500 mW of spectrally pure laser light at the 460.86 nm transition used for laser cooling of strontium atoms. To this end we inject a high power singl…
High-Fidelity Entanglement and Detection of Alkaline-Earth Rydberg Atoms
Ivaylo S. Madjarov, Jacob P. Covey, Adam L. Shaw +7
Trapped neutral atoms have become a prominent platform for quantum science, where entanglement fidelity records have been set using highly-excited Rydberg states. However, controll…
An atomic array optical clock with single-atom readout
Ivaylo S. Madjarov, Alexandre Cooper, Adam L. Shaw +5
Currently, the most accurate and stable clocks use optical interrogation of either a single ion or an ensemble of neutral atoms confined in an optical lattice. Here, we demonstrate…
Fabrication of low-cost, large-area prototype Si(Li) detectors for the GAPS experiment
Kerstin Perez, Tsuguo Aramaki, Charles J. Hailey +14
A Si(Li) detector fabrication procedure has been developed with the aim of satisfying the unique requirements of the GAPS (General Antiparticle Spectrometer) experiment. Si(Li) det…
