• Abstract: All-order momentum correlation functions associated with the time-of-flight spectroscopy of three spinless ultracold bosonic interacting neutral atoms confined in a linear three-well optical trap are presented. The underlying Hamiltonian employed for the interacting atoms is an augmented three-site Hubbard model. Our investigations target matter-wave interference of massive particles, aiming at the establishment of experimental protocols for characterizing the quantum states of trapped attractively or repulsively interacting ultracold particles, with variable interaction strength. The manifested advantages and deep physical insights that can be gained through the employment of the results of our study for a comprehensive understanding of the nature of the quantum states of interacting many-particle systems, via analysis of the all-order (that is 1st, 2nd and 3rd) momentum correlation functions for three bosonic atoms in a three well confinement, are illustrated and discussed in the context of time-of-flight inteferometric interrogations of the interaction-strength-induced emergent quantum phase transition from the Mott insulating phase to the superfluid one. Furthermore, we discuss that our inteferometric interrogations establish strong analogies with the quantum-optics interference of three photons, including the aspects of genuine three-photon interference, which are focal to explorations targeting the development and implementation of quantum information applications and quantum computing.
