DESCRIPTION:General Physics Colloquium\, Professor Kyle Leach\, Queens Uni
 versity\n\nTitle: Probing Fundamental Physics with Radioactive Atoms and 
 Quantum Sensors\n\nHost: Brad Ramshaw\n\nAbstract: Precision measurements
  of radioactive decay can reveal particles and interactions that are othe
 rwise difficult to access. By embedding radioactive atoms directly into s
 uperconducting sensors\, we can measure the tiny recoil energies left beh
 ind when neutrinos or other "invisible" particles are emitted. I will des
 cribe how this approach connects nuclear physics\, atomic physics\, mater
 ials science\, quantum engineering\, and the study of fundamental interac
 tions\, using the BeEST and SALER experiments as examples. The talk will 
 include searches for new neutrinos\, recent measurements that constrain t
 he quantum localization of neutrino production\, and the opportunities cr
 eated by bringing sensitive superconducting devices together with rare-is
 otope beams. I will also discuss future directions that use levitated opt
 omechanics and quantum optics to potentially provide coherent enhancement
 s to these processes.\n\nhttp://next-to-u.app/events/90aabcc9-195f-40ab-8
