A high-flux atomic strontium oven with light-driven flux modulation
Kenneth M. Hughes, Jesse S. Schelfhout, Charu Mishra +3
A high-flux source of strontium atoms is required for cold atom quantum technology applications. We present a re-entrant oven design that avoids the need for any vacuum feed-throug…
A High-Flux Source of Cold Strontium with a Loading Rate of atoms/s for Open Release
Thomas Walker, Anna L. Marchant, Elliot Bentine +17
We present a high-flux source of cold strontium atoms based on a two-dimensional magneto-optical trap (2D MOT) and a Zeeman slower. We use the source to load a 3D MOT in a separate…
AION-10: Technical Design Report for a 10m Atom Interferometer in Oxford
K. Bongs, A. Brzakalik, U. Chauhan +89
This Technical Design Report presents AION-10, a 10-meter atom interferometer to be located at Oxford University using ultracold strontium atoms to make precision measurements of f…
A prototype differential atom interferometer for fundamental physics
C. F. A. Baynham, R. Hobson, O. Buchmueller +89
Gravitational waves and ultralight dark matter are among the most compelling frontiers in fundamental physics, motivating proposals for Very Long-Baseline Atom Interferometers (VLB…
Centralised Design and Production of the Ultra-High Vacuum and Laser-Stabilisation Systems for the AION Ultra-Cold Strontium Laboratories
B. Stray, O. Ennis, S. Hedges +69
This paper outlines the centralised design and production of the Ultra-High-Vacuum sidearm and Laser-Stabilisation systems for the AION Ultra-Cold Strontium Laboratories. Commissio…
Perspective on Quantum Bubbles in Microgravity
Nathan Lundblad, David C. Aveline, Antun Balaz +13
Progress in understanding quantum systems has been driven by the exploration of the geometry, topology, and dimensionality of ultracold atomic systems. The NASA Cold Atom Laborator…
