An atom interferometer can make ultra-precise measurements of gravity<\/p>\n

Extremely cold atoms have been used to measure gravity more precisely than we thought possible, beating a limit that stems from quantum weirdness.<\/p>\n

This record-beating measurement was made using ultracold atoms, some of the most sensitive force sensors. They are useful for such work because at the coldest possible temperature<\/a> \u2013 absolute zero \u2013 they take on quantum properties that are extremely susceptible to pushes and pulls in their environment. But that sensitivity can be muddled by the small fluctuations, or \u201cquantum noise\u201d, in the atoms\u2019 states.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
