Ultra-high sensitivity detection of quantum-scale displacements in cavity optomechanics optimises the combined errors from measurement back-action and imprecisions from incoming quantum noises. This sets the well-known Standard Quantum…
In the past, light-assisted cold collisions between laser cooled atoms have been widely studied in magneto-optical atom traps (MOTs). We describe here theoretical studies of dynamical interactions, specifically cold collisions, between…
