Recent advances in nonlinear dynamics have led to more informative characterizations of complex signals making it possible to probe correlations in data to which traditional linear statistical and spectral analyses were not sensitive. Many of these new tools require detailed knowledge of small scale structures of the attractor; knowledge that can be acquired only from relatively large amounts of precise data that are not contaminated by noise-not the kind of data one usually obtains from experiments. There is a need for tools that can take advantage of ''coarse-grained'' information, but which nevertheless remain sensitive to higher-order correlations in the data. …

An experiment is described which is an analog of Young's double-slit interferometer using an atomic electron instead of light. Two phase-coherent laser pulses are used to excite a single electron into a state of the form of a pair of Rydberg wave packets that are initially on opposite sides of the orbit. The two wave packets propagate and spread until they completely overlap, then a third phase-coherent laser pulse probes the resulting fringe pattern. The relative phase of the two wave packets is varied so that the interference produces a single localized electron wave packet on one side of the …
