Quasi-integrability and nonlinear resonances in cold atoms under modulation

Abstract

Quantum dynamics of a collection of atoms subjected to phase modulation has been carefully revisited. We present an exact analysis of the evolution of a two-level system (represented by a spinor) under the action of a time-dependent matrix Hamiltonian. The dynamics is shown to evolve on two coupled potential energy surfaces, one of them binding while the other one scattering type. The dynamics is shown to be quasi-integrable with nonlinear resonances. The bounded dynamics with intermittent scattering at random moments presents the scenario reminiscent to Anderson and dynamical localization. We believe that a careful analytical investigation of a multi-component system which is classically non-integrable is relevant to many other fields, including quantum computation with multi-qubit system.
