Abstract = {{Young's archetypal double-slit experiment forms the basis for modern
   diffraction techniques: The elastic scattering of waves yields an
   interference pattern that captures the real-space structure. Here, we
   report on an inelastic incarnation of Young's experiment and demonstrate
   that resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) measures interference
   patterns, which reveal the symmetry and character of electronic excited
   states in the same way as elastic scattering does for the ground state.
   A prototypical example is provided by the quasi-molecular electronic
   structure of insulating Ba3CeIr2O9 with structural Ir dimers and strong
   spin-orbit coupling. The double ``slits{''} in this resonant experiment
   are the highly localized core levels of the two Ir atoms within a dimer.
   The clear double-slit-type sinusoidal interference patterns that we
   observe allow us to characterize the electronic excitations,
   demonstrating the power of RIXS interferometry to unravel the electronic
   structure of solids containing, e.g., dimers, trimers, ladders, or other
   superstructures.}},
