Dual atomic interferometer with a tunable point of minimum magnetic sensitivity

Atomic interferometers are often affected by magnetic field fluctuations. Using the clock transition at zero magnetic field minimizes the effect of these fluctuations. There is another transition in rubidium that minimizes the magnetic sensitivity at 3.2 G.We combine the previous two transitions to obtain minimum magnetic sensitivity at a tunable magnetic field between 2.2 and 3.2 G. The two interferometers evolve independently from each other and we control the magnetic sensitivity by changing the population in both transitions with a microwave pulse.
