Rotation related systematic effects in a cold atom interferometer onboard a Nadir pointing satellite
Quentin Beaufils, Julien Lefebve, Joel Gomes Baptista +6
We study the effects of rotations on a cold atom accelerometer onboard a Nadir pointing satellite. A simulation of the satellite attitude combined with a calculation of the phase o…
CARIOQA: Definition of a Quantum Pathfinder Mission
T. Lévèque, C. Fallet, J. Lefebve +12
A strong potential gain for space applications is expected from the anticipated performances of inertial sensors based on cold atom interferometry (CAI) that measure the accelerati…
STE-QUEST -- Space Time Explorer and QUantum Equivalence principle Space Test: The 2022 medium-class mission concept
Naceur Gaaloul, Holger Ahlers, Leonardo Badurina +45
Space-borne quantum technologies, particularly those based on atom interferometry, are heralding a new era of strategic and robust space exploration. The unique conditions of space…
Cold-atom sources for the Matter-wave laser Interferometric Gravitation Antenna (MIGA)
Quentin Beaufils, Leonid A. Sidorenkov, Pierre Lebegue +13
The Matter-wave laser Interferometric Gravitation Antenna (MIGA) is an underground instrument using cold-atom interferometry to perform precision measurements of gravity gradients…
A gravity antenna based on quantum technologies: MIGA
B. Canuel, X. Zou, D. O. Sabulsky +10
We report the realization of a large scale gravity antenna based on matter-wave interferometry, the MIGA project. This experiment consists in an array of cold Rb sources correlated…
Cold Atoms in Space: Community Workshop Summary and Proposed Road-Map
Ivan Alonso, Cristiano Alpigiani, Brett Altschul +246
We summarize the discussions at a virtual Community Workshop on Cold Atoms in Space concerning the status of cold atom technologies, the prospective scientific and societal opportu…
