Description
The times are interesting because we do not understand several basic things about the universe; however, we do not suffer from the lack of ideas of how to go about this. In the process the boundaries between disciplines such as atomic, particle, nuclear, solid-state physics, observational cosmology, etc., are dissolving, which makes it particularly exciting. In this talk I will give a broad overview of experiments, recently completed, ongoing and planned, that our group and collaborators are involved in. Sensors (of, course, quantum!) are at the center of everything.
