The FoCal prototype - an extremely fine-grained electromagnetic calorimeter using CMOS pixel sensors
A. P. de Haas, G. Nooren, T. Peitzmann +9
A prototype of a Si-W EM calorimeter was built with Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors as the active elements. With a pixelsize of 30 m it allows digital calorimetry, i.e. the part…
Design of a dual species atom interferometer for space
Thilo Schuldt, Christian Schubert, Markus Krutzik +54
Atom interferometers have a multitude of proposed applications in space including precise measurements of the Earth's gravitational field, in navigation & ranging, and in fundament…
Fluorescence detection at the atom shot noise limit for atom interferometry
Emanuele Rocco, Rebecca Palmer, Tristan Valenzuela +3
Atom interferometers are promising tools for precision measurement with applications ranging from geophysical exploration to tests of the equivalence principle of general relativit…
Differential atom interferometry with Rb and Rb for testing the UFF in STE-QUEST
C Schubert, J Hartwig, H Ahlers +18
In this paper we discuss in detail an experimental scheme to test the universality of free fall (UFF) with a differential Rb / Rb atom interferometer applicable for e…
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…
A quick test of the WEP enabled by a sounding rocket
Robert D. Reasenberg, Enrico C. Lorenzini, Biju R. Patla +4
We describe SR-POEM, a Galilean test of the weak equivalence principle, which is to be conducted during the free fall portion of a sounding rocket flight. This test of a single pai…
