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 ...
So far, humanity has yet to find its first "exomoon"—a moon orbiting a planet outside of the solar system. But that hasn't ...
Physicists 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 of atoms.
Interferences in ordinary space are easier to understand than those of the abstract space of quantum states, so it is illuminating to make the analogy between the Ramsey design 20 and a standard ...
Universe Today reports on a new telescope proposal that could help astronomers detect Earth-sized exomoons, explaining current limits, future technology, and why moons around distant planets matter ...
Particle-wave duality enables the construction of interferometers for matter waves, which complement optical interferometers in precision measurement devices. This requires the development of ...
A quantum trick based on interferometric measurements allows a team of researchers to detect even the smallest movements of a laser beam with extreme sensitivity.
Certain detection of gravitational waves requires at least two detectors located at widely separated sites. Regional phenomena such as micro-earthquakes, acoustic noise, and laser fluctuations can ...
Who’s who: The quantum Alice in Wonderland would like to understand whether the many “Twindeldum-Twindeldees” she sees are really identical or not, and uses the new interferometer for this purpose.
Radio telescopes are one of the dark arts of science. Not only do you have to deal with RF wizardry, the photons you’re detecting are so far out of the normal human experience that you really don’t ...
Matter has the mind-boggling ability to behave like waves as well as particles but it has taken physicists some time to exploit this effect. In recent years, however, various groups around the world ...
