We analyze the double slit interference of a mesoscopic particle. We calculate the visibility of the interference pattern in the far field case, introduce a characteristic temperature that defines the onset to decoherence and scrutinize the conditions that must be satisfied for an interference experiment to be possible.

Abstract
We analyze the double slit interference of a mesoscopic particle. We calculate the visibility of the interference pattern in the far field case, introduce a characteristic temperature that defines the onset to decoherence and scrutinize the conditions that must be satisfied for an interference experiment to be possible.File in questo prodotto:
