Finding dark matter among the noise with Moku:Pro
In a recent case study, we highlighted the use of the Moku:Pro in the search for what is known as “light” dark matter. These types of experiments involve searching for small signals, or “events,” usually within a vast sea of noise caused by room temperature electronics. These events also happen at unpredictable intervals, meaning that…

Revealing the “SPLENDOR” of dark matter with Moku:Pro
We often use the expression “like finding a needle in a haystack” when describing an exceptionally difficult search. Suppose, though, that you had no idea what the needle looked like, or how big it was — perhaps it could be a thousand times smaller than you expect! In that case, your task might be approaching…

Advancing optical clock performance with Moku:Pro
Introduction Humboldt University of Berlin is a prestigious public institution in Germany with a long history of supporting leading-edge scientific research. The university is linked to countless major breakthroughs in physics, and its impressive roster of faculty alumni includes none other than Albert Einstein. Julien Kluge, a Ph.D. candidate in the Joint Lab Integrated Quantum…

Shining light through a wall: Axion detection at DESY with Moku:Lab and Moku:Pro
Introduction The Any Light Particle Search (ALPS) is a research group at Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron (DESY), a world-renowned research institution for fundamental science based in Hamburg — and Germany’s largest accelerator center (Figure 1). Following the institution’s motto, “the decoding of matter,” postdoctoral researcher Todd Kozlowski is working on an axion detection project to better understand…

Building a sustainable, competitive solar car with Moku:Go and the Chalmers Solar Team
Introduction Founded in 2018 in Gothenburg, Sweden, the Chalmers Solar Team is a student-driven, nonprofit project aiming to build competitive, sustainable solar-powered electric cars (Figure 1). The team competes in the Bridgestone World Solar Challenge, an annual event that attracts teams from leading universities around the globe to put their designs to the test in…

Does your senior design project work?
After I graduated with my engineering degree, I worked as an engineering lecturer. Lecturing wasn’t actually my forte, though; I was always most concerned with making my course’s project-work work. We all end our engineering degrees with a capstone or senior design project. It should be the time when we can take both the concrete…

Capturing a high-speed mechanical impact using the Moku:Lab Data Logger
Updated April 24, 2023 In this application note we describe the use of the Moku Data Logger to capture a high-speed mechanical impact using a strain gauge. We are aiming to drop a steel ball onto an aluminum plate, measure the strain of this roughly 100 ms event, and observe any resulting mechanical oscillations. In…
