1 Compensation of gravity gradients and rotations in precision atom interferometry Albert Roura partly based on Phys. Rev. Lett. 118, (2017) Vienna, 11 April 2018
2 Motivation
3 Tests of universality of free fall (UFF) Central to Einstein s equivalence principle. Tests of UFF with macroscopic masses: free fall, lunar laser ranging (LLR) G torsion balance (Ëotvös) AB =2 g A g B g A + g B
4 Measurement of Newton s gravitational constant G By far the less accurately determined of all fundamental constants (using macroscopic masses). NIST-82 TR&D-96 LANL-97 Torsion balance Torsion balance Torsion balance CODATA 1998 UWash-00 Torsion balance BIPM-01 Torsion balance UWup-02 Simple pendulum CODATA 2002 MSL-03 Torsion balance HUST-05 Torsion balance UZur-06 Beam balance CODATA 2006 HUST-09 Torsion balance JILA-10 Simple pendulum CODATA 2010 Rosi et al., Nature 510, 518 (2014) BIPM-13 This work Torsion balance Atom interferometry G (10 11 m 3 kg 1 s 2 )
5 Earth observations: mapping Earth s gravitational field Gravity gradiometry from space (spatial resoultion & 100 km) Observing time evolution of mass distribution with applications to geophysics, hydrology, oceanography... Example: ground water depletion and stressed aquifers NASA GRACE Mission
6 Atom interferometry can make a significant contribution in all these cases BUT Gravity gradients (and rotations) pose a major challenge due to the dependence on the initial position and velocity of the atomic wave packets.
7 Outline 1. Motivation 2. Precise gravitational measurements with atom interferometry: - atom-interferometry-based gravimeters - long-time interferometry (& microgravity platforms) 3. Challenges in UFF tests due to gravity gradients 4. Overcoming loss of contrast and initial co-location problem 5. Compensation of large rotation rates
8 Precise gravitational measurements with atom interferometry (AI)

10 The evolution of the wave packets can be decomposed into two independent aspects: expansion dynamics of a centered wave packet central position and momentum which follow classical trajectories including the kicks from the laser pulses

19 Challenges in UFF tests due to gravity gradients
20 Initial co-location Systematics associated with initial central position & momentum of the two species can a mimic violation of UFF: g zz z 0 + zz v 0 T zz s 2 g g z 0. 1nm v pm/s No limitation in principle, but challenging in practice. Minimum time for verification set by Heisenberg s uncertainty principle. nn p z ~/2 (time required may exceed entire mission lifetime)
21 Loss of contrast Gravity gradients (tidal forces) lead to open interferometers: freely falling frame (Einstein elevator) z k e k e k e 2 1 t I k e k e z = zz T 2 v rec T p =( zz T 2 ) mv rec
22 Relative displacement between interfering wave packets at exit port fringe pattern in density profile loss of contrast z 6= 0, p 6= 0 1 N I N I +N II C =1 C =
23 Overcoming loss of contrast and initial co-location problem
24 Phase shift contribution connected with initial co-location directly related to z, p : = 1 ~ p x 0 +2v 0 T 1 ~ x mv Suitable adjustment of laser wavelength of 2nd pulse z = p =0 z k e + k e k e k e t k e k e + k e k e = zz T 2 /2 k e A. Roura, Phys. Rev. Lett. 118, (2017)
25 Initial co-location as well as loss of contrast are simultaneously taken care of. Required single-photon frequency change: for longer times in space T =5s 14 GHz for moderate times (and higher sufficient 2n = 50 T =1s ) AOMs may be 0.6 GHz Dependence on the mirror position, but highly suppressed in the differential measurement.

28 Gradiometry & determination of G One can use the technique to cancel the effect of static gravity gradients in measurement of time-dependent ones.

29 Compensation of large rotation rates
30 Compensation of rotations with a tip-tilt mirror as seen from a non-rotating frame:
31 Tip-tilt mirror leads to change in along the longitudinal direction: k e k e! k 0 e = cos( T ) k e k 0 e It can be compensated with following change for the second pulse: k e (1/2)( T ) 2 k e
32 Compensation of rotations with a tip-tilt mirror as seen from a non-rotating frame: k 0 e k e k 0 e
33 Tip-tilt mirror leads to change in along the longitudinal direction: k e k e! k 0 e = cos( T ) k e k 0 e It can be compensated with following change for the second pulse: k e (1/2)( T ) 2 k e
34 Simultaneous compensation of gravity gradients and large rotation rates: z k e + k e k e k e t k e k e + k e k e = zz T 2 /2 k e (1/2)( T ) 2 k e
35 Quantitative example for BECCAL ISS s angular velocity and gravity gradient: ISS 1.13 mrad/s s 2 required frequency change for T =2.6s: 1.5 GHz (partial cancellation)
36 Conclusion
37 Gradiometry and tests of UFF based on AI can provide a useful complement to those based on macroscopic masses. Gravity gradients pose a great challenge in practice as well as an ultimate limitation from HUP due to: initial co-location of the two species loss of contrast I have presented a novel scheme that can simultaneously overcome both difficulties. It can be combined with a tip-tilt mirror to compensate large rotation rates.
