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…
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…
Squeezing Enhancement in Lossy Multi-Path Atom Interferometers
Julian Günther, Jan-Niclas Kirsten-SiemÃ, Naceur Gaaloul +1
This paper explores the sensitivity gains afforded by spin-squeezed states in atom interferometry, in particular using Bragg diffraction. We introduce a generalised input-output fo…
Fundamental Limits of Large Momentum Transfer in Optical Lattices
Ashkan Alibabaei, Patrik Mönkeberg, Florian Fitzek +5
Large-momentum-transfer techniques are instrumental for the next generation of atom interferometers as they significantly improve their sensitivity. State-of-the-art implementation…
Shell-shaped Bose-Einstein condensates: Dynamics, excitations, and thermodynamics
Brendan Rhyno, Kuei Sun, Jude Bedessem +3
Shell-shaped Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) represent a paradigmatic instance of quantum fluids in hollow geometries exhibiting phenomena that bridge from ultracold atomic to ast…
Diffraction phase-free Bragg atom interferometry
VÃctor J. MartÃnez-Lahuerta, Jan-Niclas Kirsten-SiemÃ, Klemens Hammerer +1
Bragg Diffraction of matter waves is an established technique used in the most accurate quantum sensors. It is also the method of choice to operate large-momentum-transfer, high-se…
