BarrettDepartment of Physics, University of New Brunswick,8 Bailey Dr., Fredericton NB, E3B 5A3, Canada Since their first demonstration in the early 1990s, atom interferometers have proven to be excellent absolute inertial sensors—having been exploited as ultra-high sensitivity instruments for fundamental tests of physics and as state-of-the-art atomic gravimeters. As a result, they have been proposed as next generation sensors…
