Doppler Compensated Cavity For Atom Interferometry
Rustin Nourshargh, Sam Hedges, Mehdi Langlois +2
We propose and demonstrate a scheme to enable Doppler compensation within optical cavities for atom interferometry at significantly increased mode diameters. This has the potential…
Circulating pulse cavity enhancement as a method for extreme momentum transfer atom interferometry
R. Nourshargh, S. Lellouch, S. Hedges +3
Large scale atom interferometers promise unrivaled strain sensitivity to midband (0.1 - 10 Hz) gravitational waves, and will probe a new parameter space in the search for ultra-lig…
AION: An Atom Interferometer Observatory and Network
L. Badurina, E. Bentine, D. Blas +38
We outline the experimental concept and key scientific capabilities of AION (Atom Interferometer Observatory and Network), a proposed UK-based experimental programme using cold str…
Compact cold atom clock for on-board timebase: tests in reduced gravity
Mehdi Langlois, Jean-Françcois Schaff, Luigi De Sarlo +3
We present a compact atomic clock using cold rubidium atoms based on an isotropic light cooling, a Ramsey microwave interrogation and an absorption detection. Its technology readin…
