Detection of the Earth Tides by Diamagnetic Levitation
Tim M. Fuchs, Elliot Simcox, Michael Hawker +2
The detection of mass distributions and mass transport via gravity mapping is a key geophysical tool for understanding the structure and dynamics of the earth. Changes in mass dist…
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…
Enhancement of the effects due to the Schrödinger-Newton equation
Davide Giordano Ario Altamura, José Luis Gaona-Reyes, Elliot Simcox +2
The Schrödinger-Newton (SN) equation introduces a nonlinear self-gravitational term to the standard Schrödinger equation, offering a paradigmatic model for semiclassical gravity.…
An experimental platform for levitated mechanics in space
Jack Homans, Elliot Simcox, Jakub Wardak +9
Conducting levitated mechanical experiments in extreme conditions has long been the aim of researchers, as it allows for the investigation of new fundamental physics phenomena. One…
