Title: Quantum Sensing for Fundamental Physics at Wright Lab (Quantum Week at Yale)
Quantum science is one of five top priority areas identified by Yale University’s Science Strategy. Yale’s Wright Lab is exploring the applications of quantum science and sensing to tests of fundamental physics. This event, hosted by Wright Lab as part of Quantum Week at Yale, invites researchers from across campus to hear about the quantum sensing work of researchers at Wright Lab and discuss topics related to sensing at quantum scales. The objectives are to foster interdepartmental connections and identify new opportunities in this field.
Topics to be addressed include:
•Quantum Sensing in the search for Axion Dark Matter at Yale (Reina Maruyama)
•Quantum sensors for double beta decay (Karsten Heeger)
•Quantum science & computing in high energy physics (Keith Baker)
•Tabletop neutrino physics with mechanical quantum sensors (David Moore)
•Testing quantum mechanics on a macroscopic scale (Jack Harris)
•Connecting quantum field theory and experiment (Ian Moult)
The Quantum Sensing series aims to bring together researchers from across campus to discuss topics related to sensing at quantum scales. The objectives are to foster interdepartmental connections and identify new opportunities in this field.
Quantum Week at Yale is coordinated by the Yale Quantum Institute to celebrate World Quantum Day (April 14), and the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology. See https://quantum.yalespace.org/Quantum-Week.html for a full schedule of events.
This event is sponsored by Yale Wright Laboratory, Yale Department of Physics, Yale Quantum Institute, and Yale University.
