Got a passion for quantum technologies? The 3rd DQ-mat School on *Quantum States of Matter: Fundamental Physics and Applications* will take place on August 9–14, 2026, at Leibniz University Hannover. www.dq-mat.uni-hannover.de/de/summer-sc...
Congrats, Dr. Ashwin! quantumsensing.de/2026/03/12/c... In other news, we plan to become more active again on this platform :)
Congrats, Dr. Ashwin!
On January 26th, Ashwin Rajagopalan successfully defended his thesis. The day was a special milestone for both Ashwin and the group, marking the culmination of several years of work at the interfac…

When Knut tried to to something completely different, he came across an interesting arrangement using matter-wave arrays to do inertial sensing and EM field measurements - read up here #quantum #quantumsensing Multi-axis inertial sensing with 2D matter-wave arrays quantumsensing.de/2025/04/15/m...
Multi-axis inertial sensing with 2D matter-wave arrays
Atom interferometry is an exquisite measurement technique sensitive to inertial forces. However, it is commonly limited to a single sensitive axis, allowing high-precision multi-dimensional sensing…

But most of all, don't give in to cynicism or apathy. [...] it's gonna happen no matter what. But it doesn't have to. Never forget that: it doesn't have to happen. Thanks so much @dereklowe.bsky.social www.science.org/content/blog...

Happy new year! And remember, if you have the choice between being a great scientist or a great person, be a great person
Are you a MSc level student or know someone who knows someone? Check out our 2nd DQ-mat school on Quantum States of Matter: Funamental Physics and Applications. We offer travel support and you can visit the DPG spring meeting in the week afterwards! www.dq-mat.uni-hannover.de/en/spring-sc...

Es ist Zeit zu sagen: Ich verachte den Faschismus und die Faschisten.
No idea whether some algorithm changed but I am delighted to see so many new followers. Might actually take this as an opportunity to ramp up ops here. Welcome to all new followers and keep it quantum!
Our friends @TUdarmstadt and @uulm develop a new quantum field theory for atoms, which could improve high precision clocks and matter-wave interferometers, paving the way for novel fundamental-physics tests doi.org/10.1103/PRXQ...
Quantum Field Theory for Multipolar Composite Bosons with Mass Defect and Relativistic Corrections
An effective quantum field theory for composite bosons is proposed that could facilitate modeling higher precision clocks and matter-wave interferometers including relativistic effects.

Time-averaged potentials have become a real work horse in the group. Besides fundamental work on building the rubidium source for the 10 m VLBAI facility, Doro has shed light on a lot of unexpected challenges when it comes to painted potentials. quantumsensing.de/2024/05/27/c...
Congrats, Dr. Doro!
On 10th April 2024, Doro embossed her name in the VLBAI hall of fame. Over the past years, time-averaged potentials have become a real work horse in the group. Recently, besides fundamental work on bu...

Air France is really sending a message to potassium connoisseurs here
Allow me to self-advertise this one because I'm pretty excited about it: when trying to do something much different we accidentally found out that sensing with scalable BEC arrays is a lot of fun 😎 arxiv.org/abs/2403.08762
Incredibly proud of the team @VLBAI_Hannover for having demonstrated the first mini launch in the 10m facility 💪💪💪
10m baseline with a UHV line of sight onto the seismic attenuation system 😍
It's been a bit of a long ride so can I maybe interest you in some atom source technology for quantum inertial sensors? Alex Herbst's work on high flux K-39 is now in PRR link.aps.org/doi/10.1103/...
Quick reminder to self that about all the things in the US, I do never miss the 11USD a pint prices Photonics West anyone?
Look, I stumbled across some unfinished work
