Cooling the motion of a silica microsphere in a magneto-gravitational trap in ultra-high vacuum
Levitated optomechanical systems, and particularly particles trapped in vacuum, provide unique platforms for studying the mechanical behavior of objects well-isolated from their environment. Ultimately, such systems may enable the study of fundamental questions in quantum mechanics, gravity, and oth...
