Technical Proposal for the Atom Interferometer CERN Experiment (AICE) Facility
Gianluigi Arduini, Nadja Augst, Mark G. Bason +79
We present the technical proposal for the Atom Interferometer CERN Experiment (AICE), a m vertical atom interferometer to be installed against the wall of the PX…
Observation of Phase Space Dynamics of Inverted Harmonic Oscillator
Georgi Gary Rozenman, Maxim A. Efremov, Wolfgang P. Schleich +2
We have experimentally realized a parabolic potential barrier for surface gravity water waves. The analogy between the resulting wave equation and the Schrodinger equation for the…
A logarithmic phase singularity at the heart of Landau-Zener transitions
Eric P. Glasbrenner, David Fabian, Wolfgang P. Schleich
Three ingredients of the elementary Landau-Zener problem determine the familiar expression for the asymptotic value of the probability ampl…
Trap-Quenched Matter-Wave Optics in Space
Gabriel Müller, Timothé Estrampes, Claudia Puertas González +12
Dual-species atomic sources in space promise to be the testbed for a multitude of searches in quantum gas physics such as a precise test of the Universality of Free Fall (UFF), few…
Elementary asymptotic approach to the Landau-Zener problem
Eric P. Glasbrenner, Wolfgang P. Schleich
We present an asymptotic approach towards the standard Landau-Zener problem based on two linearly independent elementary waves of constant amplitude but time-dependent phase. The t…
Time-reversal Interferometry Using Cat States with Scalable Entangling Resources
Sebastián C. Carrasco, Michael H. Goerz, Zeyang Li +4
We propose a novel method for generating Schrödinger-cat states -- defined as equal superpositions of arbitrary coherent states -- using a concise sequence of rapid twist-and-turn…
