Abstract

Numerous real-world applications, such as in civil engineering, inertial navigation, and Earth Observation, have demonstrated the utility of quantum sensing with atom interferometers. Today, the biggest challenge to broader market adoption of these sensors is the in-depth knowledge of quantum mechanics required by both the manufacturers and users of these devices. We aim to make the design, construction, and operation of atom interferometers more intuitive using software that incorporates our years of experience in atom interferometry simulation. Here, we provide an overview over our simulation capabilities. Our versatile numerical toolbox enables efficient simulation of atomic test masses interacting with realistic electromagnetic, gravitational and optical forces, as well as prediction of sensor performance in realistic deployment scenarios, e.g., on air, land, and water vehicles.
