Quantum wave packet revivals

RW Robinett - Physics reports, 2004 - Elsevier
The numerical prediction, theoretical analysis, and experimental verification of the
phenomenon of wave packet revivals in quantum systems has flourished over the last …

Cold atoms in dissipative optical lattices

G Grynberg, C Robilliard - Physics Reports, 2001 - Elsevier
We present a review of the work done with dissipative optical lattices so far. A dissipative
optical lattice is achieved when a light field provides both velocity dam** and spatial …

Decoherence, entanglement and irreversibility in quantum dynamical systems with few degrees of freedom

P Jacquod, C Petitjean - Advances in Physics, 2009 - Taylor & Francis

dynamical systems with few degrees of freedom in the short-wavelength, semiclassical limit …

Motional coherence of fermions immersed in a Bose gas

R Scelle, T Rentrop, A Trautmann, T Schuster… - Physical review …, 2013 - APS
We prepare a superposition of two motional states by addressing lithium atoms immersed in
a Bose-Einstein condensate of sodium with a species-selective potential. The evolution of …

Orientational quantum revivals induced by a single-cycle terahertz pulse

CC Shu, QQ Hong, Y Guo, NE Henriksen - Physical Review A, 2020 - APS
The phenomenon of quantum revivals resulting from the self-interference of wave packets
has been observed in several quantum systems and utilized widely in spectroscopic …

Scalable -type entanglement resource in neutral-atom arrays with Rydberg-dressed resonant dipole-dipole interaction

VM Stojanović - Physical Review A, 2021 - APS
While the Rydberg-blockade regime provides the natural setting for creating W-type
entanglement with cold neutral atoms, it is demonstrated here that a scalable entanglement …

Orientation and alignment echoes

G Karras, E Hertz, F Billard, B Lavorel, JM Hartmann… - Physical review …, 2015 - APS
We present one of the simplest classical systems featuring the echo phenomenon—a
collection of randomly oriented free rotors with dispersed rotational velocities. Following …

Echo spectroscopy and quantum stability of trapped atoms

MF Andersen, A Kaplan, N Davidson - Physical review letters, 2003 - APS
We investigate the dephasing of ultra cold R b 85 atoms trapped in an optical dipole trap
and prepared in a coherent superposition of their two hyperfine ground states by interaction …

Echo-enhanced molecular orientation at high temperatures

I Tutunnikov, L Xu, Y Prior, IS Averbukh - Physical Review A, 2022 - APS
We consider the orientation of linear and symmetric-top molecules induced by laser and
delayed terahertz (THz) pulses at high rotational temperatures (up to room temperature). We …

Map** of coherent and decohering nuclear wave-packet dynamics in with ultrashort laser pulses

B Feuerstein, U Thumm - Physical Review A, 2003 - APS
Fast ionization of D 2 leads to the coherent population of many vibrational states of D 2+.
Usually, only the squared absolute values of the vibrational state amplitudes, known as …
