Multipartite entangled spatial modes of ultracold atoms generated and controlled by quantum measurement

We show that the effect of measurement back-action results in the generation of multiple many-body spatial modes of ultracold atoms trapped in an optical lattice, when scattered light is detected. The multipartite mode entanglement properties and their nontrivial spatial overlap can be varied by tun...
