Dark Energy Search by Atom Interferometry in the Einstein-Elevator

Charles Garcion, Sukhjovan S. Gill, Magdalena Misslisch +13

The DESIRE project aims to test chameleon field theories as potential candidates for dark energy. The chameleon field is a light scalar field that is subject to screening mechanism…

A Dual-Species Atom Interferometer Payload for Operation on Sounding Rockets

Michael Elsen, Baptist Piest, Fabian Adam +36

We report on the design and the construction of a sounding rocket payload capable of performing atom interferometry with Bose-Einstein condensates of K and Rb. The ap…

FPGA-based low-cost synchronized fiber network for experimental setups in space

Tim Oberschulte, Thijs Wendrich, Holger Blume

Custom experiment setups in physics often require control electronics to execute actions and measurements on a small time scale. When further constraints limit the experiment's env…

Ultracold atom interferometry in space

Maike D. Lachmann, Holger Ahlers, Dennis Becker +21

Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) in free fall constitute a promising source for space-borne matter-wave interferometry. Indeed, BECs enjoy a slowly expanding wave function, display…

The Bose-Einstein Condensate and Cold Atom Laboratory

Kai Frye, Sven Abend, Wolfgang Bartosch +48

Microgravity eases several constraints limiting experiments with ultracold and condensed atoms on ground. It enables extended times of flight without suspension and eliminates the…
