The toolkit of quantum technologies developed in atomic, molecular and optical physics are ideally suited to enhance the search for dark matter axions with masses above ~40 µeV. I will present an overview of a new experimental effort under construction at Imperial College, developing technologies to detect DFSZ axions with masses above 120 µeV. We plan to use a large mode area Fabry-Perot...
Determining the nature of the neutrino mass is an extremely difficult technological problem that appears likely to require unconventional solutions. To this end, our group has been developing single-molecule fluorescence imaging based sensors to tag the individual Ba2+ ions produced in the decay of xenon-136 through integrated photonic chips with organic sensing monolayers. Such structures...
