Limits on the abundance of millicharged particles bound to matter
Gadi Afek, Fernando Monteiro, Jiaxiang Wang +3
Millicharged particles (mCPs) are hypothesized particles possessing an electric charge that is a fraction of the charge of the electron. We report a search for mCPs with charges $\…
Mechanical Quantum Sensing in the Search for Dark Matter
Daniel Carney, Gordan Krnjaic, David C. Moore +32
Numerous astrophysical and cosmological observations are best explained by the existence of dark matter, a mass density which interacts only very weakly with visible, baryonic matt…
Search for composite dark matter with optically levitated sensors
Fernando Monteiro, Gadi Afek, Daniel Carney +3
Results are reported from a search for a class of composite dark matter models with feeble, long-range interactions with normal matter. We search for impulses arising from passing…
Force and acceleration sensing with optically levitated nanogram masses at microkelvin temperatures
Fernando Monteiro, Wenqiang Li, Gadi Afek +3
This paper demonstrates cooling of the center-of-mass motion of 10 m-diameter optically levitated silica spheres to an effective temperature of K, achieved by minimiz…
Deviations from generalized Equipartition in Confined, Laser Cooled Atoms
Gadi Afek, Alexander Cheplev, Arnaud Courvoisier +1
We observe a significant steady-state deviation from the generalized equipartition theorem, one of the pivotal results of classical statistical mechanics, in a system of confined,…
Revival of Raman Coherence of Trapped Atoms
Gadi Afek, Jonathan Coslovsky, Alexander Mil +1
We perform Raman spectroscopy of optically trapped non interacting \Rb atoms, and observe revivals of the atomic coherence at integer multiples of the trap period. The effect of co…
