In contrast, the new “full-loop” interferometer actively brings the wave packets back together, and detects interference through variations in spin population rather than a spatial fringe pattern. The ...

The idea is that the spin-separated states experience different accelerations ... Wisconsin-Madison in the US points out that many other proposals based on matter-wave interferometry use atoms to ...
