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…
Understanding the gravitational and magnetic environment of a very long baseline atom interferometer
Ali Lezeik, Dorothee Tell, Klaus Zipfel +5
By utilizing the quadratic dependency of the interferometry phase on time, the Hannover Very Long Baseline Atom Interferometer facility (VLBAI) aims for sub nm/s gravity measur…
Large-momentum-transfer atom interferometers with rad-accuracy using Bragg diffraction
Jan-Niclas Siemß, Florian Fitzek, Christian Schubert +3
Large-momentum-transfer~(LMT) atom interferometers using elastic Bragg scattering on light waves are among the most precise quantum sensors to date. To advance their accuracy from…
