Fermilab completes laser lab construction for world’s largest vertical atom interferometer
Construction of a laser laboratory that will house state-of-the-art lasers necessary to run the experiment’s 100-meter atom interferometer is complete. This is an important step in building a quantum sensing device capable of seeing tiniest of signals emanating from the farthest reaches of the universe to discover new physics phenomena.
