In this paper we update the existing schemes for computation of atom-interferometric signal in single-atom interferometers to interferometry with dense Bose-condensed atomic samples. Using the theory developed we explain the fringe contrast degradation observed, for longer duration of interferometric cycle, in the Michelson interferometer on a chip recently realized at JILA (Ying-Ju Wang, Dana Z. Anderson, Victor M. Bright, Eric A. Cornell, Quentin Diot, Tetsuo Kishimoto, Mara Prentiss, R. A. Saravanan, Stephen R. Segal, Saijun Wu, Phys. Rev. Lett. 94, 090405 (2005)). We further suggest several recipes for suppression of the interaction-related contrast degradation.
