Emergence of singularities from decoherence: Quantum catastrophes
Aaron Z. Goldberg, Asma Al-Qasimi, J. Mumford +1
We use a master equation to study the dynamics of two coupled macroscopic quantum systems (e.g.\ a Josephson junction made of two Bose-Einstein condensates or two spin states of an…

Catastrophes in non-equilibrium many-particle wave functions: universality and critical scaling
J Mumford, W Kirkby, D H J O'Dell
As part of the quest to uncover universal features of quantum dynamics, we study catastrophes that form in simple many-body wave functions after a quench, focusing on two-mode syst…

Parametric amplification of light in a cavity with a moving dielectric membrane: Landau-Zener problem for the Maxwell field
F. Hasan, D. H. J. O'Dell
We perform a theoretical investigation into the classical and quantum dynamics of an optical field in a cavity containing a moving membrane ("membrane-in-the-middle" set-up). Our a…
