Members of the CARIOQA consortium will take part in the European Geosciences Union (EGU) General Assembly 2026, held in Vienna from 3 to 8 May, where they will present recent progress and research results related to quantum sensing and its applications in Earth observation.

As one of the leading international conferences in the geosciences, the EGU General Assembly offers a key platform for scientific exchange and interdisciplinary dialogue. CARIOQA partners will contribute through several presentations showcasing advances in quantum technologies for space applications and future satellite gravity missions.

Among the confirmed contributions:

  • CARIOQA Pathfinder Mission: Accelerometer Applications
    Manuel Schilling, Liliane Biskupek, Matthias Weigelt, Stefanie Bremer, and Andreas Leipner
    Monday 4 May, 14:00–15:45 (CEST)
  • CARIOQA Phase B – The Next Step on the European Path to Quantum Sensors in Space
    Liliane Biskupek and the CARIOQA Consortium
    Thursday 7 May, 08:30–10:15 (CEST)
  • Benefit of Cold Atom Interferometry Inertial Sensors for Future Satellite Gravity Missions
    Annike Knabe, Alireza Hosseini Arani, Nina Fletling, Quentin Beaufils, Arpetha Chikkamavathur Sreekantaiah, Franck Pereira dos Santos, Jürgen Müller, and Steffen Schön
    Thursday 7 May, 08:30–10:15 (CEST)
