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…

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…
