The standard quantum limit and beyond collaboration

在测量宏观物体的位置时，达到了一个前所未有的极限，这将为澳大利亚创造一项新的世界纪录，打破这一极限就像打破4分钟一英里的纪录--这是一项以前被认为不可能的壮举。 这不仅将为我们的创新能力创造民族自豪感，而且随着亚量子干涉测量新领域的开放而开发的光学技术有可能为澳大利亚工业带来实实在在的利益。该提案将培养出在与光子学等新兴产业相关的技术方面训练有素的科学家。

Achievement of a limit never before reached in measuring the position of a macroscopic object will produce a new world record for Australia, breaking that limit is akin to breaking the 4 minute mile - a feat previously thought impossible. Not only will this create national pride in our ability to innovate, but the optical technology developed with the opening of the new field of sub-quantum interferometry has the potential to generate tangible benefits for Australian industry. This proposal will produce scientists highly trained in technologies related to emerging industries such as photonics.
