- Abstract: We introduce a matter wave interference scheme based on the quantization of
orbital angular momentum in a ring trap. It operates without beam splitters, is
sensitive to geometric phases induced by external gauge fields, and allows
measuring interatomic scattering lengths. We argue that orbital angular
momentum interferometry offers a versatile platform for quantum coherent
experiments with cold atoms and Bose-Einstein condensates using
state-of-the-art technology.
