New Developments in Atom Interferometry

Abstract

Atom interferometers have proven to be versatile tools, applicable in many different scientific and technical arenas. We have concentrated our efforts in the three major areas of precision measurements of important quantities in atomic physics, basic research into atom interferometric inertial sensors, and investigations of fundamental quantum mechanical principles.
