Quectonewton local force sensor
Yann Balland, Luc Absil, Franck Pereira dos Santos
We report on the realization of a quantum sensor based on trapped atom interferometry in an optical lattice for the measurement of atom-surface interactions, with sub-micrometer-le…
Long-range temperature-controlled transport of ultra-cold atoms with an accelerated lattice
Luc Absil, Yann Balland, Franck Pereira dos Santos
We report our method for transporting ultracold atoms over macroscopic distances and trapping them back in a vertical mixed trap, consisting of the superposition of a vertical latt…
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…
A compact differential gravimeter at the quantum projection noise limit
Camille Janvier, Vincent Ménoret, Sébastien Merlet +3
Atom interferometry offers new perspectives for geophysics and inertial sensing. We present the industrial prototype of a new type of quantum-based instrument: a compact, transport…
Calibration of a superconducting gravimeter with an absolute atom gravimeter
S. Merlet, P. Gillot, B. Cheng +4
We present a 27-days long common view measurement of an absolute cold atom gravimeter (CAG) and a relative iGrav superconducting gravimeter, which we use to calibrate the iGrav sca…
Resolution of the Co-Location Problem in Satellite Quantum Tests of the Universality of Free Fall
Sina Loriani, Christian Schubert, Dennis Schlippert +5
A major challenge common to all Galilean drop tests of the Universality of Free Fall (UFF) is the required control over the initial kinematics of the two test masses upon release d…
