Release and Recapture of Silica Nanoparticles from an Optical Trap in Weightlessness
Govindarajan Prakash, Sven Herrmann, Ralf B. Bergmann +1
Optically trapped Silica nanoparticles are a promising tool for precise sensing of gravitational or inertial forces and fundamental physics, including tests of quantum mechanics at…
Gravitomagnetic Clock Effect: Using GALILEO to explore General Relativity
Jan Scheumann, Dennis Philipp, Sven Herrmann +5
All experiments to date are in remarkable agreement with the predictions of Einstein's theory of gravity, General Relativity. Besides the classical tests, involving light deflectio…
Terrestrial Very-Long-Baseline Atom Interferometry: Workshop Summary
Sven Abend, Baptiste Allard, Iván Alonso +250
This document presents a summary of the 2023 Terrestrial Very-Long-Baseline Atom Interferometry Workshop hosted by CERN. The workshop brought together experts from around the world…
MAQRO -- BPS 2023 Research Campaign Whitepaper
Rainer Kaltenbaek, Markus Arndt, Markus Aspelmeyer +43
The objective of the proposed MAQRO mission is to harness space for achieving long free-fall times, extreme vacuum, nano-gravity, and cryogenic temperatures to test the foundations…
Concept study and preliminary design of a cold atom interferometer for space gravity gradiometry
A. Trimeche, B. Battelier, D. Becker +14
We study a space-based gravity gradiometer based on cold atom interferometry and its potential for the Earth's gravitational field mapping. The instrument architecture has been pro…
STE-QUEST - Test of the Universality of Free Fall Using Cold Atom Interferometry
D. Aguilera, H. Ahlers, B. Battelier +63
The theory of general relativity describes macroscopic phenomena driven by the influence of gravity while quantum mechanics brilliantly accounts for microscopic effects. Despite th…
