JEFFERSON LAB SEARCH

Fermilab launched a quantum program in 2017 to explore the overlaps between quantum science and technology and the lab’s primary mission of high energy physics. These overlaps include areas where Fermilab expertise and infrastructure contribute to the larger QIS ecosystem, such as applications of SRF accelerator technology for quantum devices, as well as exploring how quantum sensors and quantum computers can contribute to advancing fundamental science. Quantum sensors are now enabling the launch of new experiments, including MAGIS-100, the world’s first 100-meter scale cold atom gradiometer, aimed at detecting gravity waves and wavelike dark matter.

A talk by Tim Hobbs of Argonne National Laboratory.

The historic detection of gravitational waves from the binary neutron star merger GW170817 by the LIGO-Virgo collaboration is providing fundamental new insights into the astrophysical site for the creation of the heaviest elements in the cosmos and the equation of state on neutron-rich matter. Since then, electromagnetic observations of neutron stars together with measurements of the properties of neutron-rich nuclei at terrestrial facilities are placing stringent constraints on the nature of neutron-rich matter. It is this unique synergy between heaven and Earth that will be the focus of this presentation.
