Funded Activity Summary

Fundamental tests of Quantum Mechanics with the Atom Laser. This is high profile scientific research that is important to Australia's standing in the world scientific community. Atom optics was singled out as a key area of Australian science through the formation of the ARC Centre for Quantum Atom Optics in 2003, and is in the Breakthrough Science category of the Frontier Technologies priority funding area. The experimental schemes developed in this proposal contribute to the already strong experimental atom optics research in Australia. In order to remain at the forefront of fundamental physics research, Australia must maintain a world-class research effort in this area.
