This transition is controlled by coupling strength and energy offset between the traps. The dynamics is also shown to be exactly that of a Heisenberg chain with a linear magnetic field. Possible applications for ``quantum-state engineering'' are discussed.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2002-01-18T14:15:23.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "coherent quantum oscillations", "ultracold atoms", "coupled traps", "linear magnetic field", "transition" ], "note": { "typesetting": "RevTeX", "pages": 4, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2002cond.mat..1335B" } } }
