Popis:	We describe and compare two proposals for creating macroscopic superpositions using single-photon optomechanical systems. The realization of the proposed experiments poses major technological challenges, which we examine. Reaching the quantum ground state is essential for both schemes. We present experimental results on optical cooling, which provides a way to reach the quantum ground state for low frequency optomechanical resonators.
