Classical route to ergodicity and scarring phenomena in a two-component Bose-Josephson junction
arXiv:2204.12422 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.106.043321
Abstract
We consider a Bose-Josephson junction (BJJ) formed by a binary mixture of ultracold atoms to investigate the manifestation of coherent collective dynamics on ergodicity and quantum scars, unfolding the connection between them. By tuning the inter- and intra-species interaction, we demonstrate a rich variety of Josephson dynamics and transitions between them, which plays a crucial role in controlling the overall ergodic behavior. The signature of underlying classicality is revealed from the entanglement spectrum, which also elucidates the formation of quantum scars of unstable steady states and of periodic orbits leading to athermal behavior. The degree of ergodicity across the energy band and scarring phenomena can be probed from the auto-correlation function as well from the phase fluctuation of the condensates, which has relevance in cold atom experiments.
