Universe Today reports on a new telescope proposal that could help astronomers detect Earth-sized exomoons, explaining current limits, future technology, and why moons around distant planets matter ...

So far, humanity has yet to find its first "exomoon"—a moon orbiting a planet outside of the solar system. But that hasn't ...

Certain detection of gravitational waves requires at least two detectors located at widely separated sites. Regional phenomena such as micro-earthquakes, acoustic noise, and laser fluctuations can ...

What's on and in a star? What happens in an active galactic nucleus? Answering those questions is the goal of a proposed giant interferometer on the moon. It's called the Artemis-enabled Stellar ...

Physicists have created a quantum interferometer on an atom chip. This device can be used to explore the fundamentals of quantum theory by studying the interference pattern between two beams of atoms.

Particle-wave duality enables the construction of interferometers for matter waves, which complement optical interferometers in precision measurement devices. This requires the development of ...

Interferences in ordinary space are easier to understand than those of the abstract space of quantum states, so it is illuminating to make the analogy between the Ramsey design 20 and a standard ...

This article outlines how to measure, control, and stabilize the relative distance of two interferometer paths to sub-wavelength precision over numerous wavelengths, using the Zurich Instruments MFLI ...

Radio telescopes are one of the dark arts of science. Not only do you have to deal with RF wizardry, the photons you’re detecting are so far out of the normal human experience that you really don’t ...

Matter has the mind-boggling ability to behave like waves as well as particles but it has taken physicists some time to exploit this effect. In recent years, however, various groups around the world ...

Who’s who: The quantum Alice in Wonderland would like to understand whether the many “Twindeldum-Twindeldees” she sees are really identical or not, and uses the new interferometer for this purpose.

[jrcgarry] hacked together this awesome interferometer which is able to measure displacements in the nanometer range. Commercial interferometers are used in research labs to measure tiny displacements ...
