Quantum Physics in Space
Alessio Belenchia, Matteo Carlesso, Ömer Bayraktar +17
Advances in quantum technologies are giving rise to a revolution in the way fundamental physics questions are explored at the empirical level. At the same time, they are the seeds…
Quantum Technologies in Space
Rainer Kaltenbaek, Antonio Acin, Laszlo Bacsardi +17
Recently, the European Commission supported by many European countries has announced large investments towards the commercialization of quantum technology (QT) to address and mitig…
Ultracold atom interferometry in space
Maike D. Lachmann, Holger Ahlers, Dennis Becker +21
Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) in free fall constitute a promising source for space-borne matter-wave interferometry. Indeed, BECs enjoy a slowly expanding wave function, display…
The Bose-Einstein Condensate and Cold Atom Laboratory
Kai Frye, Sven Abend, Wolfgang Bartosch +48
Microgravity eases several constraints limiting experiments with ultracold and condensed atoms on ground. It enables extended times of flight without suspension and eliminates the…
Space-borne Bose-Einstein condensation for precision interferometry
Dennis Becker, Maike D. Lachmann, Stephan T. Seidel +32
Space offers virtually unlimited free-fall in gravity. Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) enables ineffable low kinetic energies corresponding to pico- or even femtokelvins. The comb…
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…
