By assessing the relevant environmental decoherence mechanisms, as well as the growing size of the particles relative to the grating fringes, we argue that it will be feasible to test the quantum superposition principle in a mass range excluded by recent estimates of the CSL effect. © 2011 American Physical Society. | Source Title: | Physical Review A - Atomic, Molecular, and Optical Physics | URI: | https://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/180859 | ISSN: | 1050-2947 | DOI: | 10.1103/PhysRevA.83.043621 | Rights: | Attribution 4.0 International |
