Primary quantum thermometry of mm-wave blackbody radiation via induced state transfer in Rydberg states of cold atoms by Noah Schlossberger, Andrew P. Rotunno, Stephen P. Eckel, Eric B. Norrgard, Dixith Manchaiah, Nikunjkumar Prajapati, Alexandra B. Artusio-Glimpse, Samuel Berweger, Matthew T. Simons, Dangka Shylla, William J. Watterson, Charles Patrick, Adil Meraki, Rajavardhan Talashila, Amanda Younes, David S. La Mantia, Christopher L. Holloway

“…We use selective field ionization readout of Rydberg states with principal quantum number n∼30 in ^{85}Rb and substantiate our ionization signal with a theoretical model. With this detection method, we measure the associated blackbody-radiation-induced time dynamics of these states, reproduce the results with a simple semiclassical population transfer model, and demonstrate that this measurement is temperature sensitive with a statistical sensitivity to the fractional temperature uncertainty of 0.09 Hz^{−1/2}, corresponding to 26 K Hz^{−1/2} at room temperature. …”
