We study shot (counting) noise of the amplitude of interference between independent atomic systems. In particular, for the two interfering systems the variance of the fringe amplitude decreases as the inverse power of the number of…
Coherence and interference play crucial roles in emission and absorption of photons to and from large systems with many atoms. Confusion has arisen because nuclear X-ray physicists and atomic quantum-optics physicists do not understand one…
