Measurement-induced Squeezing of a Bose-Einstein Condensate

arXiv:cond-mat/0109094 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.65.033620

Abstract

We discuss the dynamics of a Bose-Einstein condensate during its nondestructive imaging. A generalized Lindblad superoperator in the condensate master equation is used to include the effect of the measurement. A continuous imaging with a sufficiently high laser intensity progressively drives the quantum state of the condensate into number squeezed states. Observable consequences of such a measurement-induced squeezing are discussed.
