The accuracy and precision of current atom-interferometric inertialsensors rival state-of-the-art conventional devices using artifact-based test masses . Atomic sensors are well suited for fundamental measurements of gravito-inertial fields. The sensitivity required to test gravitational theories can be achieved by extending the baseline of the interferometer. The I.C.E. (Interférométrie Cohérente pour l'Espace) interferometer aims to achieve long interrogation times in compact apparatus via reduced gravity. We have tested a cold-atom source during airplane parabolic flights. We show that this environment is compatible with free-fall interferometric measurements using up to 4 second interrogation time. We present the next-generation apparatus using degenerate gases for low release-velocity atomic sources in space-borne experiments.

High resolution rotation sensor based on cold Rubidium atoms

We report on our compact transportable cold atom inertial sensor for precision sensing of rotations. The sensor consists of a dual Mach-Zehnder type atom interferometer operating with laser-cooled87Rb. Raman processes are employed to coherently manipulate the matter waves. We present the latest inertial sensitive interferometer measurements and discuss the road map to reach the full potential of the sensor featuring a sensitivity of a few nrad/s/radic(Hz).
