A quantum trick based on interferometric measurements allows a team of researchers at LMU to detect even the smallest ...

According to Fermilab, the interferometer will occupy a 328 feet shaft at its facilities. This was used years ago for access ...

Atom interferometry has emerged as a transformative approach in both fundamental physics and practical applications, utilising the wave nature of atoms to measure minute effects of gravity, rotation ...

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 ...

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 ...

NASA’s Cold Atom Lab, shown where it’s installed aboard the International Space Station, recently demonstrated the use of a tool called an atom interferometer that can precisely measure gravity and ...

Toward the development of a “quantum compass” for navigation when GPS signal unavailable. Sandia scientists prepare a rubidium cold-atom cell for an interferometry experiment. Scientists are ...

The figure shows how atoms with opposing spins are separated into two streams using magnets and then brought back together, creating an interference pattern. If any external quantum processes affect ...
