Samuel Legge

Samuel Legge is a Research Fellow at the Department of Quantum Science & Technology, Australian National University (ANU). His research focuses on advanced quantum sensing technologies, particularly atom interferometry and cold atom systems applied to gravimetry and navigation. He leads projects involving compact quantum sensors and hybrid multisensor systems.

• Key roles: Principal Investigator (PI) on ANU projects including MiniGrav and quantum-assured positioning systems.
• Research areas: Quantum gravimeters, cold atom interferometry stabilization, supercontinuum generation in photonic crystal fibers.
• Collaborations: Extensive work with ANU teams on deployable sensors and fusion of classical/quantum accelerometers.

His work emphasizes practical applications of quantum physics in navigation, subsurface mapping, and gravitational wave detection. Notable contributions include dual open atom interferometry designs and low-noise detection strategies for cold atoms.
