Matter-Wave Interferometry with Phase Fluctuating Bose-Einstein Condensates

A non-interacting zero-temperature Bose-Einstein condensate is the matter-wave analogue to the optical laser, and therefore the ideal atom source for matter-wave interferometry.  However, at finite temperature elongated condensates (e.g. in wave guides) suffer from phase fluctuations.
