Entanglement generation and Hamiltonian simulation in Continuous-Variable Systems
Barbara Kraus, Klemens Hammerer, Geza Giedke +1
Several recent experiments have demonstrated the promise of atomic ensembles for quantum teleportation and quantum memory. In these cases the collective internal state of the atoms…
One-atom maser: Non-separable atom pairs
Berthold-Georg Englert, Pavel Lougovski, Enrique Solano +1
When a one-atom maser is operated in the standard way -- excited, resonant two-level atoms traverse the resonator at random times -- the emerging atoms are entangled with the cavit…
Quantum computation with unknown parameters
J. J. Garcia-Ripoll, J. I. Cirac
We show how it is possible to realize quantum computations on a system in which most of the parameters are practically unknown. We illustrate our results with a novel implementatio…
Phase-dependent interaction in a 4-level atomic configuration
Giovanna Morigi, Sonja Franke-Arnold, Gian-Luca Oppo
We study a four-level atomic scheme interacting with four lasers in a closed-loop configuration with a (diamond) geometry. We investigate the influence of the laser…
Relating the Lorentzian and exponential: Fermi's approximation,the Fourier transform and causality
A. Bohm, N. L. Harshman, H. Walther
The Fourier transform is often used to connect the Lorentzian energy distribution for resonance scattering to the exponential time dependence for decaying states. However, to apply…
Spontaneous emission of an atom in front of a mirror
Almut Beige, Jiannis Pachos, Herbert Walther
Motivated by a recent experiment [J. Eschner {\it et al.}, Nature {\bf 413}, 495 (2001)], we now present a theoretical study on the fluorescence of an atom in front of a mirror. On…
