Abstract:
There is an increasing interest in developing experiments aimed at testing collapse
models, in particular theContinuous LocalizationModel (CSL), the natural evolution
of the GRW model initially proposed by Ghirardi et al. [1-4]. Current experiments
and related bounds on collapse parameters are partially discussed in other contributions
in this review. Our aim here is to discuss some of the most promising directions
towards future improvements. The paper is organized as follows. In Sects. 2, 3, 4
we will discuss noninterferometric techniques. In detail, in Sect. 2 we will discuss
mechanical experiments, bothwith conventional and levitatedmechanical resonators,
in Sect. 3 we will consider proposed experiment looking at bulk thermal heating of
solid bodies and in Sect. 4 we will briefly discuss the use of cold atoms or macroscopic
condensates. In Sect. 5 we will outline proposals of matter-wave interference
with massive nano/microparticles. We will end in Sect. 6 with some ideas on how
precision experiments can be used for testing collapse models.
