Abstract
The development of atom interferometry in the last few decades has led to high precision measurements of inertial effects and tests of fundamental physics [1]. New methods for higher sensitivity atom interferometers (AIs) are being explored, in particular the interrogation of atoms with optical cavities. The benefits of optical cavities would be higher optical power allowing large momentum transfer beam splitters, and possibly cleaner and controlled phase profiles [2]. However high sensitivity AIs require long interrogation times, which, combined with cold atom cloud expansion, bring the challenges of large centimetric waists in cavities.
