Macroscopic Quantum Resonators Path Finder (MAQRO-PF) White Paper
Jack Homans, Laura da Palma Barbara, Jakub Wardak +3
Optically levitated particles are used in a wide range of experiments to explore both fundamental physics and to act as sensors to a variety of external forces. One field of partic…
Cryogenic pressure sensing with an ultrafast Meissner-levitated microrotor
Joel K Jose, Andrea Marchese, Marion Cromb +5
Magnetically levitated spinning rotors are key elements in important technologies such as navigation by gyroscopes, energy storage by flywheels, ultra-high vacuum generation by tur…
Linear cooling of a levitated micromagnetic cylinder by vibration
Chris Timberlake, Elliot Simcox, Hendrik Ulbricht
We report feedback cooling of translational and librational degrees of freedom of a levitated micromagnet cylinder, utilizing a piezoelectric actuator to apply linear feedback to h…
Nanoparticle Interferometer by Throw and Catch
Jakub Wardak, Tiberius Georgescu, Giulio Gasbarri +2
Matter-wave interferometry with increasingly larger masses could pave the way to understanding the nature of wavefunction collapse, the quantum to classical transition or even how…
