The exquisite precision of atom interferometers has sparked the interest of a large community for use cases ranging from fundamental physics to geodesy and inertial navigation. However, their practical use for onboard applications is still…
The Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is a cornerstone of widely used optimizers such as Adam. However, existing theoretical analyses of Adam-style methods have notable limitations: their guarantees can remain suboptimal in the zero-noise…
We demonstrate a z-axis accelerometer which uses waveguided light to sense proof mass displacement. The accelerometer consists of two stacked rings (one fixed and one suspended above it) forming an optical ring resonator. As the upper ring…
The calibration technique for accelerometers has been internationally developed for up to 20 kHz to ensure the reliability of vibration measurement. However, it has been established that the calibrated sensitivity changes at over 10 kHz…
We show that a magnetically levitated microsphere in high vacuum can be used as an accelerometer by comparing its response to that of a commercially available geophone. This system shows great promise for ultrahigh acceleration…
