Aspect and J. Clauser)</h4><p>Anton Zeilinger received a doctorate from the University of Vienna in 1971 for his work on "Neutron Depolarization in Dysprosium Single Crystals" under the supervision of Helmut Rauch. From 1974 to 1989, he worked half-time as a visiting scientist at the ILL, performing various experiments to test fundamental predictions of quantum mechanics. Here, Rauch and Zeilinger successfully achieved a direct observation of fermion spin superposition, measured at the neutron interferometry station S18. During the same period, they also demonstrated the sign change of the wave function of fermions under rotations of 360 degrees. These outstanding experiments marked the beginning of a long series of quantum experiments at the instrument S18 up to the present day.<br> After spending some time as a visiting scientist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Anton Zeilinger held positions at TU Wien (Austria), TU München (Germany) and the University of Innsbruck (Austria). During this period, he applied the concept of neutron interferometry to very cold neutrons, aiming to gain greater sensitivity due to a much longer wavelength, and to take advantage of different systematic effects compared to the perfect crystal neutron interferometry at S18. These experiments were conducted at the ultra-cold and very cold neutron facility PF2. For them, the beamline PF2/VCN was entirely rebuilt and equipped. The activity led to a precise measurement of the gravitational phase shift of neutron wave packets, and the experimental demonstration of the Scalar Neutron Aharonov-Bohm effect.<br> Anton Zeilinger’s research then turned towards experiments using mainly photons. The list of scientific highlights is long, ranging from the demonstration of the quantum teleportation of a photon, the development of techniques for quantum entanglement and the teleportation of quantum states to important contributions to quantum information technology and quantum cryptography, as well as matter wave interferometry experiments similar to the ones with neutrons, but using atoms and even bucky balls.</p><p>The neutron work of Anton Zeilinger is also described here: <<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anton_Zeilinger#Neutron_interferometry>" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anton_Zeilinger#Neutron_interferometry></a>;</p></div><div class="ce-gallery" data-ce-columns="3" data-ce-images="3"><div class="ce-row"><div class="ce-column"><figure class="image"><a href="/fileadmin/_processed_/e/6/csm_93-ZEILINGER-Anton_1_9cf1c6adde.jpg" data-fancybox="lightbox[3653]" data-caption=" Anton Zeilinger<br />©1993 ILL, Walter Mampe symposium, Katalin Mampe's archives"><img class="image-embed-item" src="/fileadmin/_processed_/e/6/csm_93-ZEILINGER-Anton_1_25ea1a75a0.jpg" width="125" height="150" alt=""></a><figcaption class="image-caption"><p>Anton Zeilinger<br>©1993 ILL, Walter Mampe symposium, Katalin Mampe's archives</p></figcaption></figure></div><div class="ce-column"><figure class="image"><a href="/fileadmin/_processed_/d/6/csm_93-ZEILINGER_SCHERM_mampe_833bdd0667.jpg" data-fancybox="lightbox[3653]" data-caption=" A.

His work can be summarised as follows [1]:<br> "<em>In this case, sextupole rather than quadrupole fields were needed to act on the magnetic moment of the neutron. He built such a trap, NESTOR [2], which was installed in a neutron beam at the Institut Laue-Langevin in Grenoble. Paul, and a small team from Bonn, which included his two sons Stephan and Lorenz, both physicists, carried out a precision measurement of the lifetime of free propagating neutrons [3,4] and determined its gravitational mass by seeing the neutrons fall inside the trap. Knowing the exact neutron lifetime is relevant to particle physics, in particular to precision tests of the Standard Model, as well as in astrophysics, because it governs the near equilibrium of protons and neutrons in the primordial phase of nucleosynthesis. The experiment was carried out in 1989 and resulted in the most precise measurement of the lifetime of the neutron at this time.</em>"<br><a href="/users/instruments/instruments-list/supersun">SuperSUN</a>, a new Ultra Cold Neutron (<a href="/redirects/tools/glossary/U#ucn" title="Ultra-cold neutron" class="dpnglossary link" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="top">UCN</a>) source, is being built (2022) at the ILL which makes use of a sextupole magnetic trap inherited from the pioneering work of Wolgang Paul and his collaborators.</p></div><div class="ce-gallery" data-ce-columns="5" data-ce-images="5"><div class="ce-row"><div class="ce-column"><figure class="image"><a href="/fileadmin/_processed_/e/1/csm_Wolfgang_Paul_eaa4e130be.jpg" data-fancybox="lightbox[3653]" data-caption=" Wolfgang Paul<br />© wikipedia<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> "><img class="image-embed-item" src="/fileadmin/_processed_/3/1/csm_Wolfgang_Paul_9310c9ff0f.jpg" width="190" height="157" alt=""></a><figcaption class="image-caption"><p>Wolfgang Paul<br>© wikipedia<br> <br> <br> <br> </p></figcaption></figure></div><div class="ce-column"><figure class="image"><a href="/fileadmin/_processed_/3/4/csm_93-PAUL-Wolfgang_DUBBERS_mampe_41cc8c7f02.jpg" data-fancybox="lightbox[3653]" data-caption=" Wolfgang Paul talking to Dirk Dubbers (ILL Director)<br />©1993 ILL, Walter Mampe symposium, Katalin Mampe's archives"><img class="image-embed-item" src="/fileadmin/_processed_/3/4/csm_93-PAUL-Wolfgang_DUBBERS_mampe_a065b81c89.jpg" width="190" height="126" alt=""></a><figcaption class="image-caption"><p>Wolfgang Paul talking to Dirk Dubbers (ILL Director)<br>©1993 ILL, Walter Mampe symposium, Katalin Mampe's archives</p></figcaption></figure></div><div class="ce-column"><figure class="image"><a href="/fileadmin/_processed_/9/b/csm_78-PN5_S23-NESTOR_S22-EDM_dc58f7e256.jpg" data-fancybox="lightbox[3653]" data-caption=" PN5 platform (ILL reactor level C)<br />From left to right: blue spindle: curved neutron guide shielding; metal cylinder: UCN distribution box; horizontal cylinder: EDM (S22); vertical cylinder: NESTOR (S23)<br />©1978 ILL, Neyrtec"><img class="image-embed-item" src="/fileadmin/_processed_/7/c/csm_78-PN5_S23-NESTOR_S22-EDM_7bc6f1299b.jpg" width="190" height="138" alt=""></a><figcaption class="image-caption"><p>PN5 platform (ILL reactor level C)<br>From left to right: blue spindle: curved neutron guide shielding; metal cylinder: <a href="/redirects/tools/glossary/U#ucn" title="Ultra-cold neutron" class="dpnglossary link" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="top">UCN</a> distribution box; horizontal cylinder: EDM (S22); vertical cylinder: NESTOR (S23)<br>©1978 ILL, Neyrtec</p></figcaption></figure></div><div class="ce-column"><figure class="image"><a href="/fileadmin/_processed_/a/f/csm_78-UCN-magnetic-storage_e97d56560e.jpg" data-fancybox="lightbox[3653]" data-caption=" Neutron lifetime measurement.

Paul</a> and H.G. Dehmelt)</h4><p>Norman Ramsey collaborated with the ILL from 1973 to about 1990. Together with his collaborators, he did some impressive work using the high neutron flux provided by the ILL's reactor, and this played a major role in the success and development of experiments with cold and ultracold neutrons (<a href="/redirects/tools/glossary/U#ucn" title="Ultra-cold neutron" class="dpnglossary link" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="top">UCN</a>) at the RHF. Historically, Ramsey experiments with neutrons began at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. They were moved to the ILL to take advantage of the higher fluxes available at the ILL: the H18 beam tube, PN5 (IH3 beam tube), the first ILL <a href="/redirects/tools/glossary/U#ucn" title="Ultra-cold neutron" class="dpnglossary link" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="top">UCN</a> source and then the even more powerful “Steyerl turbine" (<a href="/users/instruments/instruments-list/pf2">PF2</a>). A famous aspect of Ramsey's work is the search for a neutron electric dipole moment (nEDM), which still represents one of the main applications of the famous “Ramsey technique” (separated oscillatory field method) for which he obtained the Nobel Prize in 1989. A non-vanishing value of the nEDM would violate time-reversal invariance and this would help to understand the apparent matter-antimatter asymmetry in our universe. The search for a neutron electric dipole moment still continues today with, for example, the <a href="https://www.ph.nat.tum.de/e66/research/neutron-edm/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">panEDM</a> experiment which is currently being built on <a href="/users/instruments/instruments-list/supersun">SuperSUN,</a> an advanced new <a href="/redirects/tools/glossary/U#ucn" title="Ultra-cold neutron" class="dpnglossary link" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="top">UCN</a> source. Ramsey and his collaborators also measured the neutron magnetic moment with great accuracy and this is very important for all the neutron physics and techniques where magnetism is involved. Ramsey's contribution to the observation of parity non-conserving neutron spin rotation is another example of the wide spectrum of fundamental physics experiments in which he was involved.<br> ----<br> Two of Ramsey's collaborators (<strong><a href="/about-the-ill/introducing-the-ill/history/norman-ramsey-nobel-prize-1989/geoff-greene">Geoffrey Greene</a></strong> and <strong><a href="/about-the-ill/introducing-the-ill/history/norman-ramsey-nobel-prize-1989/bob-golub">Bob Golub</a></strong>) gave us a their recollection of the work with him at the ILL.<br> Two of Ramsey's PhD students were awarded prestigious prizes for work which included research conducted during their time at the ILL.<br><strong><strong>2020 - </strong><strong><a href="https://www.ornl.gov/news/greene-wins-apss-bonner-prize-nuclear-physics" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"><strong><strong>Geoffrey Greene</strong></strong></a></strong></strong> was awarded the prestigious Bonner Prize by the APS.
