A method for measuring translational diffusion constant in liquids via NOON state is described using a quantum circuit and is experimentally demonstrated using a model system. When compared with the standard single quantum method, the NOON…
The aim of the FAMU experiment is to realize the first measurement of the hyperfine splitting (hfs) in the 1S state of muonic hydrogen $\Delta E^{hfs}_{1S}$, by using the RIKEN-RAL intense pulsed muon beam and a high-energy mid-infrared…
We describe how a single-particle tracking experiment should be designed in order for its recorded trajectories to contain the most information about a tracked particle's diffusion coefficient. The precision of estimators for the diffusion…
We dispersively interface an ensemble of one thousand atoms trapped in the evanescent field surrounding a tapered optical nanofiber. This method relies on the azimuthally-asymmetric coupling of the ensemble with the evanescent field of an…
The movement of a particle described by Brownian motion is quantified by a single parameter, $D$, the diffusion constant. The estimation of $D$ from a discrete sequence of noisy observations is a fundamental problem in biological single…
We perform experimental study of turbulent transport of nanoparticles in convective turbulence with the Rayleigh number $\sim 10^8$ in the air flow. We measure temperature field in many locations by a temperature probe equipped with 11…
Absorption measurement is an exceptionally versatile tool for many applications in science and engineering. For absorption measurements using laser beams of light, the sensitivity is theoretically limited by the shot noise due to the…
The resistivity of polycrystalline chemical vapor deposition diamond sensors is studied in samples exposed to fluences relevant to the environment of the High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider. We measure the leakage current for a range of…
We demonstrate a technique for obtaining the density of atomic vapor, by doing a fit of the resonant absorption spectrum to a density-matrix model. In order to demonstrate the usefulness of the technique, we apply it to absorption in the…
We propose an alternative method for one-dimensional continuum diffusion models with spatially variable (heterogeneous) diffusivity. Our method, which extends recent work on stochastic diffusion, assumes the constant-coefficient homogenized…
We experimentally and theoretically analyze the transmission of continuous-wave and pulsed squeezed vacuum through rubidium vapor under the conditions of electromagnetically induced transparency. Frequency- and time-domain homodyne…
A high degree of quantum coherence is a crucial requirement for the implementation of quantum logic devices. Solid state nanodevices seem particularly promising from the point of view of integrability and flexibility in the design. However…
We have measured -3.5 dB (-8.1 dB corrected for losses) relative intensity squeezing between the probe and conjugate beams generated by stimulated, nondegenerate four-wave mixing in hot rubidium vapor. Unlike early observations of squeezing…
We describe the design, construction and performance of a 4-circle in-vacuum diffractometer for resonant elastic soft x-ray scattering and reflectivity. The diffractometer, installed on the REIXS beamline at the Canadian Light Source,…
Understand and predict the dynamics of dispersed micro-objects in microfluidics is crucial in numerous natural, industrial and technological situations. In this paper, we experimentally characterized the equilibrium velocity $V$ and lateral…
Diffraction of atoms from surfaces provides detailed insights into structures, interactions, and dynamical processes. However, currently the method is limited to measurements in reflection - diffraction through materials has only been…
We present a novel method, based on the Saunderson corrections, to predict the reflectance between a liquid interface and a dielectric diffuser. In this method, the diffuse properties of the dielectric are characterized using a single…
Quantum memories are an integral component of quantum repeaters - devices that will allow the extension of quantum key distribution to communication ranges beyond that permissible by passive transmission. A quantum memory for this…
We describe the realization of a magnetically guided beam of cold rubidium atoms, with a flux of $7\times 10^9$ atoms/s, a temperature of 400 $\mu$K and a mean velocity of 1 m/s. The rate of elastic collisions within the beam is sufficient…
Radio absorptive materials (RAMs) are key elements for receivers in the millimeter-wave range. For astronomical applications, cryogenic receivers are widely used to achieve a high-sensitivity. These cryogenic receivers, in particular the…
