  1. 915. Techniques for Precision Metrology and the Realization of Quantum Sensors*
    Prof. A Kumarakrishnan (York University)

    Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics, Canada / Physique atomique, moléculaire et photonique, Canada (DAMOPC-DPAMPC)
    Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

    We review distinctive experimental techniques that rely on coherent scattering, precision metrology, and atom interferometry that have realized varied applications including precise measurements of atomic lifetimes, masses of dielectric particles, atomic diffusion, centre of mass velocity, and gravitational acceleration. We show that the two-pulse photon echo technique is capable of realizing...

    Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

    Atom interferometers are a form of quantum sensor in which matter waves are used for high-precision inertial sensing, such as gravimetry and gradiometry. Optimizing these sensors involves a careful design of the interferometer geometry, as well as improving the detection scheme that monitors internal and center-of-mass states of an atomic cloud.

    In this talk we present a theoretical...

  3. 978. Entanglement, loss, and quantumness: When balanced beam splitters are best
    Aaron Goldberg (National Research Council of Canada)

    Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics, Canada / Physique atomique, moléculaire et photonique, Canada (DAMOPC-DPAMPC)
    Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

    Entanglement generation by beam splitters lies at the heart of quantum optics. Yet, the conjecture that maximal entanglement is generated by beam splitters with equal probabilities of reflection and transmission has remained unproved for two decades. I will show how we proved this conjecture by studying photon loss and found corollaries throughout quantum optics.
