Abstract

We propose a terrestrial detector for gravitational waves with frequencies between 0.3 and 5 Hz based on atom interferometry. As key elements, we discuss two symmetric matter-wave interferometers, the first one with a single loop and the second one featuring a folded triple-loop geometry. The latter eliminates the need for atomic ensembles at femtokelvin energies imposed by the Sagnac effect in other atom interferometric detectors. The folded triple-loop geometry also combines several advantages of current vertical and horizontal matter wave antennas and enhances the scalability in order to achieve a peak strain sensitivity of 2 × 10 − 21 / Hz .
