abstract = {Matter wave interferometry is becoming an increasingly
important technique in quantum metrology. However, unlike
its photonic counterpart, this technique relies on the
interference of particles possessing a nonzero rest mass and
an electric charge. Matter waves can therefore experience
alterations in their wavelike features while propagating
through uniform fields to which a linear potential can be
attributed, e.g., the Newtonian gravitational potential.
Here, we derive the propagation kernel attributed to matter
waves within such a potential. This kernel thereafter allows
us to provide analytical formulations for structured matter
waves subjected to a linear potential. Our formulations are
in agreement with both the classical dynamics attributed to
such waves and with previous interferometry experiments.
Eigenbasis representations of structured matter waves are
also introduced along with their application to enhanced
interferometric measurements. Our results are not only
relevant to matter wave interferometry, but also emphasize
its fundamental differences with respect to photonic
interferometry.},
