Space magnetometry with a differential atom interferometer

Matthias Meister, Gabriel Müller, Patrick Boegel +16

Atom interferometers deployed in space are excellent tools for high precision measurements, navigation, or Earth observation. In particular, differential interferometric setups fea…

Interferometry of Atomic Matter Waves in the Cold Atom Lab onboard the International Space Station

Jason R. Williams, Charles A. Sackett, Holger Ahlers +26

Ultracold atomic gases hold unique promise for space science by capitalizing on quantum advantages and extended freefall, afforded in a microgravity environment, to enable next-gen…

Bragg-diffraction-induced imperfections of the signal in retroreflective atom interferometers

Jens Jenewein, Sabrina Hartmann, Albert Roura +1

We present a detailed study of the effects of imperfect atom-optical manipulation in Bragg-based light-pulse atom interferometers. Off-resonant higher-order diffraction leads to po…

Double Bragg diffraction: A tool for atom optics

E. Giese, A. Roura, G. Tackmann +2

The use of retro-reflection in light-pulse atom interferometry under microgravity conditions naturally leads to a double-diffraction scheme. The two pairs of counterpropagating bea…

Interferometry with Bose-Einstein Condensates in Microgravity

H. Müntinga, H. Ahlers, M. Krutzik +41

Atom interferometers covering macroscopic domains of space-time are a spectacular manifestation of the wave nature of matter. Due to their unique coherence properties, Bose-Einstei…
