Raman transitions driven by phase-modulated light in a cavity atom interferometer

Sofus L. Kristensen, Matt Jaffe, Victoria Xu +2

Atom interferometers in optical cavities benefit from strong laser intensities and high-quality wavefronts. The laser frequency pairs that are needed for driving Raman transitions…

The Bose-Einstein Condensate and Cold Atom Laboratory

Kai Frye, Sven Abend, Wolfgang Bartosch +48

Microgravity eases several constraints limiting experiments with ultracold and condensed atoms on ground. It enables extended times of flight without suspension and eliminates the…

Observation of the relativistic reversal of the ponderomotive potential

Jeremy J. Axelrod, Sara L. Campbell, Osip Schwartz +3

The secular dynamics of a non-relativistic charged particle in an electromagnetic wave can be described by the ponderomotive potential. Although ponderomotive electron-laser intera…

Probing gravity by holding atoms for 20 seconds

Victoria Xu, Matt Jaffe, Cristian D. Panda +3

Atom interferometers are powerful tools for both measurements in fundamental physics and inertial sensing applications. Their performance, however, has been limited by the availabl…

SAGE: A Proposal for a Space Atomic Gravity Explorer

G. M. Tino, A. Bassi, G. Bianco +44

The proposed mission "Space Atomic Gravity Explorer" (SAGE) has the scientific objective to investigate gravitational waves, dark matter, and other fundamental aspects of gravity a…

Measurement of a Li tune-out wavelength by phase-patterned atom interferometry

Eric Copenhaver, Kayleigh Cassella, Robert Berghaus +1

Atom interferometers typically use the total populations the interferometer's output ports as the signal, but finer spatial structure can contain useful information. We pattern a m…
