Release and Recapture of Silica Nanoparticles from an Optical Trap in Weightlessness
Govindarajan Prakash, Sven Herrmann, Ralf B. Bergmann +1
Optically trapped Silica nanoparticles are a promising tool for precise sensing of gravitational or inertial forces and fundamental physics, including tests of quantum mechanics at…
An experimental platform for levitated mechanics in space
Jack Homans, Elliot Simcox, Jakub Wardak +9
Conducting levitated mechanical experiments in extreme conditions has long been the aim of researchers, as it allows for the investigation of new fundamental physics phenomena. One…
