Proposal for a long-lived quantum memory using matter-wave optics with Bose-Einstein condensates in microgravity
Elisa Da Ros, Simon Kanthak, Erhan Sağlamyürek +2
Bose-Einstein condensates are a promising platform for optical quantum memories, but suffer from several decoherence mechanisms, leading to short memory lifetimes. While some of th…
Light-Pulse Atom Interferometric Test of Continuous Spontaneous Localization
Sascha Vowe, Sandro Donadi, Vladimir Schkolnik +3
We investigate the effect of the Continuous Spontaneous Localization (CSL) model on light-pulse atom interferometry. Using a path-integral approach with an additional stochastic po…
Entanglement dynamics of photon pairs and quantum memories in the gravitational field of the earth
Roy Barzel, Mustafa Gündoğan, Markus Krutzik +2
We investigate the effect of entanglement dynamics due to gravity -- the basis of a mechanism of universal decoherence -- for photonic states and quantum memories in Mach-Zehnder a…
Optical Atomic Clock aboard an Earth-orbiting Space Station (OACESS): Enhancing searches for physics beyond the standard model in space
Vladimir Schkolnik, Dmitry Budker, Oliver Fartmann +13
We present a concept for a high-precision optical atomic clock (OAC) operating on an Earth-orbiting space station. This pathfinder science mission will compare the space-based OAC…
Linien: A versatile, user-friendly, open-source FPGA-based tool for frequency stabilization and spectroscopy parameter optimization
Benjamin Wiegand, Bastian Leykauf, Robert Jördens +1
We present a user-friendly and versatile tool for laser frequency stabilization. Its main focus is spectroscopy locking, but the software is suitable for lock-in techniques in gene…
Compact Plug and Play Optical Frequency Reference Device Based on Doppler-Free Spectroscopy of Rubidium Vapor
Aaron Strangfeld, Benjamin Wiegand, Julien Kluge +2
Compactness, robustness and autonomy of optical frequency references are prerequisites for reliable operation in mobile systems, on ground as well as in space. We present a standal…
Cold Atoms in Space: Community Workshop Summary and Proposed Road-Map
Ivan Alonso, Cristiano Alpigiani, Brett Altschul +246
We summarize the discussions at a virtual Community Workshop on Cold Atoms in Space concerning the status of cold atom technologies, the prospective scientific and societal opportu…
