Finding out what the universe is actually made of remains one of the ultimate ...

A prototype quantum sensor developed by researchers at Imperial has demonstrated for the first time that a key principle ...

Extremely precise measurements are possible using atom interferometers that employ the wave character of atoms for this purpose. They can thus be used, for example, to measure the gravitational field ...

Large-scale atom interferometers, analogous to optical interferometers but measuring the difference in phase between atomic matter waves on different paths, are intended to be key elements in future ...

The alternative text for this image may have been generated using AI. We describe how the AION project has tested a gradiometer configuration in the laboratory using 87 Sr, combining atomic clock ...

In 2017, a team of researchers led by Leibniz University Hannover succeeded in generating Bose-Einstein condensates in space within the scope of the MAIUS-1 rocket mission. Bose-Einstein condensates ...

Physicists in Israel have created a quantum interferometer on an atom chip. This device can be used to explore the fundamentals of quantum theory by studying the interference pattern between two beams ...

This includes proposals such as the Atom Interferometry CERN Experiment (AICE), which would apply similar techniques over ...
