Macroscopic quantum superpositon states of two-component Bose-Einstein condensates
arXiv:1202.5787 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.85.033613
Abstract
We examine a two-component Bose-Einstein condensate in a double-well potential. We propose a model for the creation of many-particle macroscopic quantum superposition states. The effect of dissipation on the formation of these states is also investigated with the Monte-Carlo wavefunction technique.
