Multiparticle Interferometry and the Superposition Principle
Abstract
Discussing the particle analog of Thomas Young's classic double-slit experiment, Richard Feynman wrote in 1964 that it “has in it the heart of quantum mechanics. In reality, it contains the only mystery.” That mystery is the one-particle superposition principle. But Feynman's discussion and statement have to be generalized. Superposition may be the only true quantum mystery, but in multiparticle systems the principle yields phenomena that are much richer and more interesting than anything that can be seen in one-particle systems.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
