Several miniaturized Quantum Sensors use laser spectroscopy of atoms to achieve very good performance. Optically-Pumped magnetometers (OPMs), also called atomic magnetometers, use light to polarize atomic spins of atoms. The spins precess in a magnetic field and the precession frequency is a measure of the magnetic field. Our effort focusses on miniaturizing these OPMs with sensitivities...

Voyager 1 has now entered the interstellar medium, a moment of great historical import. We describe the Voyager 1 magnetic field and energetic particle observations, the initial uncertainty surrounding a possible crossing of the heliopause, and the eventual clarification by the Plasma Waves Analyzer. The interaction of the solar wind and the interstellar medium is complicated by the presence...
