Probing Exotic Potentials with Lattice Atom Interferometry
Offered By: Erwin Schrödinger International Institute for Mathematics and Physics (ESI) via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore cutting-edge advancements in atom interferometry presented in this 22-minute conference talk from the Workshop on "Blackbody Radiation Induced Effects and Phenomena" at the Erwin Schrödinger International Institute for Mathematics and Physics. Discover how mode-filtered laser beams in optical cavities have revolutionized trapped atom interferometers, achieving unprecedented coherence times of up to one minute for spatially-separated massive quantum superpositions. Learn about the unique advantages of lattice atom interferometers over traditional free-fall setups, enabling precise measurements of exotic and fundamental potentials such as dark energy, gravity, and blackbody radiation. Gain insights into recent experimental breakthroughs and their implications for both fundamental physics and inertial sensing applications.
