自由气体的无反冲散射
Recoil Free Scattering From a Free Gas
摘要:
本文提出了一种处理原子中自由粒子气体散射引起的退相干的方法。我们表明,有一个反冲自由散射过程,使原子和气体在一个不变的状态,但允许收购的相移,保持在自由空间的限制。这对于理解分离臂原子干涉仪中的退相干是必不可少的,在分离臂原子干涉仪中,原子气体形成物质波的折射介质。我们的工作澄清了在何种程度上散射的自由粒子作为一个哪种方式的测量。
英文摘要:
We present a treatment of decoherence in an atom due to scattering from a gas of free particles. We show that there is a recoil free scattering process that leaves both the atom and the gas in an unchanged state, but allows for the acquisition of a phase shift that remains in the free space limit. This is essential to understanding decoherence in a separated arm atom interferometer, where a gas of atoms forms a refractive medium for a matter wave. Our work clarifies the extent to which scattering of a free particle acts as a which-way measurement.
