Invited Talk: Cold Atom Quantum Technology to Explore Fundamental Physics
Oliver BuchmuellerImperial College London I will outline in the presentation the scientific opportunities of a multi-stage programme based on cold atom quantum technology. The central goals of the programme are to search for ultra-light dark matter, to explore gravitational waves in the mid-frequency range between the peak sensitivities of LISA and LIGO/Virgo/ KAGRA/INDIGO/Einstein Telescope/Cosmic Explorer experiments, and to probe other frontiers in fundamental physics. This programme would complement other planned searches for dark matter, as well as probe mergers involving intermediate-mass black holes and explore early-universe cosmology.I will especially focus on key activities in the field: the recently funded AION project [1] in the UK, the proposed space mission proposal…
