Single-photon large-momentum-transfer atom interferometry scheme for Sr or Yb atoms with application to determining the fine-structure constant
The leading experimental determinations of the fine-structure constant 𝛼 currently rely on atomic photon-recoil measurements from Ramsey-Bordé atom interferometry with large-momentum transfer to provide an absolute mass measurement. We propose an experimental scheme for an intermediate-scale differe...
