Interference patterns of cat states in ultracold atoms — •Bettina Gertjerenken¹ and Christoph Weiss^1,2 — ¹Institut für Physik, Carl von Ossietzky Universität, D-26111 Oldenburg, Germany — ²Department of Physics, Durham University, Durham DH1 3LE, United Kingdom

In [1] it has been proposed to create nonlocal quantum superpositions by scattering of bright matter wave solitons at a laser focus. We investigate the interference of the two parts of the quantum superposition and discuss consequences for measurements on the interference pattern.
