Steve Lamoreaux

Steve Lamoreaux is the Eugene Higgins Professor of Physics at Yale University, affiliated with the Department of Physics. His research focuses on Atomic, Molecular, and Optical (AMO) physics, including the Haloscope At Yale Sensitive to Axion CDM (HAYSTAC) experiment, electric dipole moment measurements, and the Casimir effect. He is the Principal Investigator for HAYSTAC, a collaboration involving Yale, Colorado University, and UC Berkeley. His work includes precision experimental techniques, quantum cryptography, and ultracold neutron physics. Lamoreaux has contributed to the first high-accuracy measurement of the Casimir force and has been involved in various experimental projects at institutions such as Los Alamos National Laboratory and the Oak Ridge Spallation Neutron Source. He is also engaged in teaching and public outreach, including laboratory development and science communication.

Steven K. Lamoreaux is a physicist at Yale University specializing in precision measurement techniques, atomic and nuclear physics, and astrophysics. His experimental research focuses on probing fundamental interactions through high-precision measurements, including studies of the Casimir force, axion searches, and electric dipole moments. Lamoreaux's work explores quantum phenomena and their implications for dark matter and fundamental symmetries. His research also includes quantum cryptography and ultra-cold neutrons, contributing to both theoretical and applied physics. His experimental approaches often involve advanced microwave cavity techniques and optically-pumped systems to achieve high sensitivity and accuracy.
