论文摘要
在过去的三十年中,由于研究重力的新工具,原子干涉仪已开发出来。它们用于测量重力加速度,重力梯度和重力场曲率,以确定重力常数,以研究在微观距离处的重力研究,以测试一般相对论的等效原理,并测试重力的理论,以探究重力和量子的相互作用,以实现重力和量子的相互作用,以实现量子和量子的相互作用,以实现量子和量子的模型,以实现量子和量子的模型,以实现量子和量子的量观察重力波的新检测器。在这里,我描述了过去和正在进行的实验,对我认为这是该领域的主要前景以及寻找新物理学的可能性的前景。
Atom interferometers have been developed in the last three decades as new powerful tools to investigate gravity. They were used for measuring the gravity acceleration, the gravity gradient, and the gravity-field curvature, for the determination of the gravitational constant, for the investigation of gravity at microscopic distances, to test the equivalence principle of general relativity and the theories of modified gravity, to probe the interplay between gravitational and quantum physics and to test quantum gravity models, to search for dark matter and dark energy, and they were proposed as new detectors for the observation of gravitational waves. Here I describe past and ongoing experiments with an outlook on what I think are the main prospects in this field and the potential to search for new physics.
