چکیده
We study the scattering of two-level atoms at narrow laser fields, modeled by a δ-shape intensity profile. The unique properties of these potentials allow us to give simple analytic solutions for one or two field zones. Several applications are studied: a single δ-laser may serve as a detector model for atom detection and arrival-time measurements, either by means of fluorescence or variations in occupation probabilities. We show that, in principle, this ideal detector can measure the particle density, the quantum mechanical flux, arrival time distributions or local kinetic energy densities. Moreover, two spatially separated δ-lasers are used to investigate quantized-motion effects on Ramsey interferometry.

The problems of cavity atom optics in the presence of an external strong coherent field are formulated as the problems of potential scattering of doubly-dressed atomic wave packets. Two types of potentials produced by various multiphoton Raman processes in a high-finesse cavity are examined. As an application the deflection of dressed atomic wave by a cavity mode is investigated. New momentum d...

Using a density matrix approach, we study the simplest systems that display both gain and feedback: clusters of 2 to 5 atoms, one of which is pumped. The other atoms supply feedback through multiple scattering of light. We show that, if the atoms are in each other’s near-field, the system exhibits large gain narrowing and spectral mode redistribution. The observed phenomena are more pronounced ...

We review three examples of quasi exactly solvable (QES) Hamitonians which possess multiple algebraisations. This includes the most prominent example, the Lamé equation, as well as recently studied many-body Hamiltonians with Weierstrass interaction potential and finally, a 2× 2 coupled channel Hamiltonian.

We consider a PT-symmetric partner to Khare-Mandal’s recently proposed non-Hermitian potential with complex eigenvalues. Our potential, which is quasi-exactly solvable, is shown to possess only real eigenvalues. PACS : 03.65.Bz, 03.65.Ge

The one-dimensional Coulomb-like potential with a real coupling constant β, and a centrifugal-like core of strength G = α − 1 4 , viz., V (x) = α− 1 4 (x−ic) + β |x−ic| , is discussed in the framework of PT -symmetry. The PT -invariant exactly solvable model so formed, is found to admit a double set of real and discrete energies, numbered by a quasi-parity q = ±1. ———————————————————– ————————————
