This Centre aims to build sophisticated quantum machines to harness the quantum world for the future health, economy, environment and security of Australian society. It intends to pioneer the designer quantum materials, engines and imaging systems at the heart of these machines. It also solves the most challenging research problems at the interface of basic quantum physics and engineering. The Centre will work with industry partners to translate these research discoveries into practical applications and devices. It will train scientists in research, innovation, and entrepreneurship, which is expected to affect Australia’s high-tech economy.Read moreRead less

Summary
Optimising Space-Based Atom Interferometer Design. This theoretical physics project aims to enable high-precision atom interferometry in space. Atom interferometers could allow measurements of unparalleled precision in the low-gravity, low-noise environment of space, however, size, weight, and power constraints must also influence the design of any space-based device. This project expects to develop implementable strategies for the optimal design and performance of space-based atom interferomete ....Optimising Space-Based Atom Interferometer Design. This theoretical physics project aims to enable high-precision atom interferometry in space. Atom interferometers could allow measurements of unparalleled precision in the low-gravity, low-noise environment of space, however, size, weight, and power constraints must also influence the design of any space-based device. This project expects to develop implementable strategies for the optimal design and performance of space-based atom interferometers. This could deliver new space-based sensing capabilities, advancing our capacity to monitor the Earth’s fresh water supply, geology, oceans, and ice caps, as well as precipitating much-needed measurements that probe potential quantum gravitational effects.Read moreRead less
