![]() ![]() They will develop novel new quantum measurement technology for inclusion in the US ADMX experiment, which can then be used to search for axions in parts of our galaxy’s dark matter halo that have never been explored before.ĭr Ed Romans, UCLQ researcher and co-investigator for this project at UCL said: “This is a fantastic opportunity to bring together two usually separate research communities to work together and exploit new quantum technologies to drive forward the cutting edge of fundamental physics research.” Determination of Absolute Neutrino Mass using Quantum Technologies (UKRI funding: £3.8 million): The project aims to contribute to the search for axions, low-mass ‘hidden’ particles that are candidates to solve the mystery of dark matter. Led by the University of Sheffield with partners at Universities of Cambridge, Liverpool and Oxford, Lancaster University, National Physical Laboratory, Royal Holloway University of London, and UCL. UCL researchers are involved in three of the seven new projects, including: Quantum Sensors for the Hidden Sector (UKRI funding: £4.8 million) : Just as quantum computing promises to revolutionise traditional computing, technologies such as quantum sensors have the potential to radically change our approach to understanding our universe. UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) is supporting seven projects with a £31 million investment to demonstrate how quantum technologies could solve some of the greatest mysteries in fundamental physics. Researchers will use cutting-edge quantum technologies to transform our understanding of the universe and answer key questions such as the nature of dark matter and black holes. UCL and partners at other UK universities and institutions have been awarded £12.9M to explore the universe’s biggest mysteries. ![]()
