Quantum Fundamental Constants in Brighton, with Amber Shepherd, University of Sussex.
Manage episode 424190170 series 3481493
In this episode, we take a slight tangent from our usual discussions on quantum networking to have a fascinating conversation with Amber Sheppard, a PhD student at the University of Sussex in the UK. Amber shares insights into her intriguing experiments involving quantum clocks, which she uses to measure potential shifts in the fundamental constants, specifically the mass ratio of the photon and the electron.
Throughout the episode, we explore the following key topics:
- The innovative use of quantum clocks in Amber's research.
- Detailed explanations of how these clocks can detect shifts in fundamental constants.
- The significance of measuring the mass ratio between photons and electrons.
- The types of lasers used in the experiment and how they compare to traditional optical transceivers from the IT domain
- The broader implications of this research in the field of quantum technology.
Amber's work is a prime example of how cutting-edge quantum technology can deepen our understanding of the universe's fundamental properties. Join us as we delve into the specifics of her experiments and discuss the potential future applications of her findings in quantum computing and beyond. Tune in to gain a deeper appreciation of the complexities and possibilities within the realm of quantum technology.
