Abstract: Atomic interference experiments test the universality of the coupling between matter-energy and gravity at different spacetime points, thus being in principle able to probe possible violations of the universality of the gravitational redshift (UGR). In this contribution, we introduce a UGR violation model and then discuss UGR tests performed by atomic clocks and atom interferometers on the same footing. We present a large class of atom-interferometric geometries which are sensitive to violations of UGR.

Feasible generation of gravity-induced entanglement by using optomechanical systems [0.0]
We report the feasibility of detecting gravity-induced entanglement (GIE) with optomechanical systems. Our proposal focuses on GIE generation between optomechanical mirrors, coupled via gravitational interactions. We show that GIE is generated faster than a well-known time scale without optomechanical coupling.

Interferometry of Atomic Matter Waves in the Cold Atom Lab onboard the International Space Station [0.2551676739403148]
NASA's Cold Atom Lab operates onboard the International Space Station as a multi-user facility for studies of ultracold atoms. Atom interferometers are a class of quantum sensors which can use freely falling gases of atoms cooled to sub-photon-recoil temperatures. A three-pulse Mach-Zehnder interferometer was studied to understand limitations from the influence of ISS vibrations. Ramsey shear-wave interferometry was used to manifest interference patterns in a single run that were observable for over 150 ms free-expansion time.

Candidate Molecules for Next-Generation Searches of Hadronic Charge-Parity Violation [0.0]
We study a set of strongly polar heteronuclear diatomic molecules composed of laser-coolable atoms for their suitability as sensitive probes of new charge-parity violation in the hadron sector of matter. We single out the molecule francium-silver (FrAg) as the most promising system in this set and calculate its nuclear Schiff-moment interaction constant to $WmathrmFrAg_SM(mathrmFr) = 30168 pm 2504mathrma.u.$ for the target nucleus Fr.

Light propagation and atom interferometry in gravity and dilaton fields [58.80169804428422]
We study the modified propagation of light used to manipulate atoms in light-pulse atom interferometers. Their interference signal is dominated by the matter's coupling to gravity and the dilaton. We discuss effects from light propagation and the dilaton on different atom-interferometric setups.

Resolving the gravitational redshift within a millimeter atomic sample [94.94540201762686]
Einstein's theory of general relativity states that clocks at different gravitational potentials tick at different rates. We measure a linear frequency gradient consistent with the gravitational redshift within a single millimeter scale sample of ultracold strontium.

Gravitational Redshift Tests with Atomic Clocks and Atom Interferometers [55.4934126700962]
We characterize how the sensitivity to gravitational redshift violations arises in atomic clocks and atom interferometers. We show that contributions beyond linear order to trapping potentials lead to such a sensitivity of trapped atomic clocks. Guided atom interferometers are comparable to atomic clocks.

Gravitational waves affect vacuum entanglement [68.8204255655161]
The entanglement harvesting protocol is an operational way to probe vacuum entanglement. Using this protocol, it is demonstrated that while the transition probability of an individual atom is unaffected by the presence of a gravitational wave, the entanglement harvested by two atoms depends sensitively on the frequency of the gravitational wave. This suggests that the entanglement signature left by a gravitational wave may be useful in characterizing its properties, and potentially useful in exploring the gravitational-wave memory effect and gravitational-wave induced decoherence.

Light-pulse atom interferometers constitute powerful quantum sensors for inertial forces. We present a specific geometry which together with state transitions leads to a scheme that is sensitive to both violations of the universality of free fall and gravitational redshift.
