A scanning cavity for large area coherent coupling in atom interferometry

D. O. Sabulsky, Q. Beaufils, A. Bertoldi +3

Optical cavities can enhance atom-light coupling in atom interferometry, but free-fall geometries require large transverse modes. Marginally stable resonators provide such modes, y…
