An artist's view … of the matter‐wave interferometer for large molecules is shown in the cover picture: the three‐grating arrangement is seen through the window of the vacuum chamber. The molecular model in the foreground is a compound studied in the experiments reported by K. Hornberger, M. Mayor, M. Arndt et al. in their Communication on page 6195 ff. The compound's fragmentation behavior can be analyzed using quantum interferometry.
