Online: Inertial sensing with atomic interferometers

In this seminar, we will present one of the most mature quantum technologies today: atom interferometers for inertial sensing. Such devices can accurately measure the motion of a freely-falling cloud of atoms, relying on their wave-like properties. From this measurement, one can infer the gravity, gravity gradients, acceleration, or rotation. Such devices are already operating out of the lab and are even available commercially. We will discuss both the physical principles behind atom interferometers and some of the practical aspects of having a "quantum-optics experiment" operate out of the lab.

Referenten
Dr. Dimitry Yankelev has worked as a researcher in Rafael for the last 14 years. He earned his B.Sc in physics and math from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, M.Sc in physics from the Technion, and Ph.D. in physics from the Weizmann Institute of Science. As part of the Ph.D. work and in collaboration with Rafael, has specialized in quantum sensing with cold atom interferometers, focusing on precise gravimetry and developing novel techniques to improve the sensitivity and robustness of such sensors.
