Quantum Physics from A to Z
M. Arndt, M. Aspelmeyer, H. J. Bernstein +24
This is a collection of statements gathered on the occasion of the Quantum Physics of Nature meeting in Vienna.
Influence of molecular temperature on the coherence of fullerenes in a near-field interferometer
Klaus Hornberger, Lucia Hackermueller, Markus Arndt
We study C70 fullerene matter waves in a Talbot-Lau interferometer as a function of their temperature. While the ideal fringe visibility is observed at moderate molecular temperatu…
Talbot-Lau interferometry with fullerenes: Sensitivity to inertial forces and vibrational dephasing
A. Stibor, K. Hornberger, L. Hackermueller +2
We discuss matter wave experiments in a near-field interferometer and focus on dephasing phenomena due to inertial forces. Their presence may result in a significant reduction of t…
Theory of decoherence in a matter wave Talbot-Lau interferometer
Klaus Hornberger, John E. Sipe, Markus Arndt
We present a theoretical framework to describe the effects of decoherence on matter waves in Talbot-Lau interferometry. Using a Wigner description of the stationary beam the loss o…
Decoherence of matter waves by thermal emission of radiation
Lucia Hackermueller, Klaus Hornberger, Bjoern Brezger +2
Emergent quantum technologies have led to increasing interest in decoherence - the processes that limit the appearance of quantum effects and turn them into classical phenomena. On…
