Atomic sensors for dark matter, rotation and magnetic fields

According to our current understanding, 85% of the universes mass is made up of dark matter, which has never been detected. Our project aims to develop ultra-high-performance atomic sensors that could find the missing dark matter and reshape our understanding of how the universe is made. Australia is the only country in the southern hemisphere that is part of a global collaboration called GNOME seeking evidence of this elusive mass, making our sensor station crucial for the network. Playing a role in this project means that Australian science will help shape humanitys understanding of the cosmos.The same atomic technology used in our dark matter sensor can be translated for the detection of rotation and magnetic fields. Ultra-high-performance sensing of these quantities is essential for geo-exploration, medical imaging, autonomous vehicle systems and navigation without GPS. Atomic
