Squeezed Condensates
نویسنده
چکیده
We analyse the atomic state obtained by photo-dissociation of a molecular Bose-Einsteincondensate. This process is equivalent to down-conversion in quantum optics where it is responsible for squeezing of the field amplitudes. Monte Carlo simulations derived from the Positive P description of the system, and approximate equations for second moments of the atomic field operators are introduced to describe the early stages of the process – not amenable to the usual mean-field description.

Two Pion Correlations as a Possible Experimental Probe for Disoriented Chiral Condensates
We discuss two-pion correlations as a possible experimental probe into disoriented chiral condensates. In particular, we point out that the iso-singlet squeezed states of the BCS type have peculiar two-particle correlations in the back-to-back and the identical momentum configurations which should be detectable experimentally. We motivate the examination of the squeezed state by showing that su...

We show that the sudden quenching mechanism responsible for the production of the disoriented chiral conden-sate gives rise automatically to squeezed states. We compare the distribution of charged and neutral pions in the two extreme limits of a sudden quench and a slow adiabatic relaxation and show that in the former case the difference in the distributions is much more dramatic than in the la...
متن کاملcondensates in quark and atomic systems ∗
In these lectures we discuss condensates which are formed in quark matter when it is squeezed and in a gas of fermionic atoms when it is cooled. The behavior of these two seemingly very different systems reveals striking similarities. In particular, in both systems the Bose-Einstein condensate to Bardeen–Cooper-Schrieffer (BEC-BCS) crossover takes place.

The development of the Raman atom laser promises to make available new techniques for accessing and manipulating the quantum statistical properties of Bose-Einstein condensates. In this work we show how, combined with the already existing methods for the manipulation of quantum states of light which are central to quantum optics, the Raman input-output coupling mechanisms potentially enable the...
متن کاملScalable spin squeezing for quantum-enhanced magnetometry with Bose-Einstein condensates.
A major challenge in quantum metrology is the generation of entangled states with a macroscopic atom number. Here, we demonstrate experimentally that atomic squeezing generated via nonlinear dynamics in Bose-Einstein condensates, combined with suitable trap geometries, allows scaling to large ensemble sizes. We achieve a suppression of fluctuations by 5.3(5) dB for 12,300 particles, from which ...
