Scalable Bose-Einstein-condensate Sagnac interferometer in a linear trap

Scalable Bose-Einstein-condensate Sagnac interferometer in a linear trap

We demonstrate a two-dimensional atom interferometer in a harmonic magnetic waveguide using a Bose-Einstein condensate. Such an interferometer could measure rotation using the Sagnac effect. Compared to free space interferometers, larger interactions times and enclosed areas can in principle be achieved, since the atoms are not in free fall. In …
