DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Kyle Leach (Colorado School of Mines)\n\n\nWORKSHOP 
 FOCUS\nThe meeting will connect researchers developing state-of-the-art op
 tomechanical sensors in the nuclear\, particle\, and astroparticle communi
 ties that could use them. A central goal is to identify concrete experimen
 tal opportunities\, technical challenges\, and new collaborations at the i
 nterface of these fields.CONTEXT: OPTOMECHANICAL SENSING\nMechanical reson
 ators operating at or near the quantum limit are opening new approaches to
  some of the most challenging measurements in fundamental physics. This wo
 rkshop will bring together researchers in optomechanics\, quantum sensing\
 , atomic physics\, and subatomic and astroparticle physics to explore how 
 these rapidly developing technologies can be applied to searches for new p
 articles and forces\, precision recoil measurements\, neutrino physics\, d
 ark matter detection\, and tests of fundamental quantum mechanics.TOPICS\n
 \n- Levitated and cavity optomechanical sensors\n- Quantum-limited force\,
  impulse\, and acceleration measurements\n- Dark matter and new-force sear
 ches\n- Nuclear decays\, recoils\, and neutrino measurements\n- Tests of q

 nd scalabilityFORMATInvited and contributed presentations\, focused discus
 sion sessions\, and opportunities for informal scientific exchange and col
 laboration.\n\n\n\nhttps://indico.global/event/18677/
