Electrodynamic trapping of spinless neutral atoms with an atom chip
Three dimensional electrodynamic trapping of neutral atoms has been
demonstrated. By applying time-varying inhomogeneous electric fields with
micron-sized electrodes, nearly strontium atoms in the state
have been trapped with a lifetime of 80 ms. In order to design the electrodes,
we numerically analyzed the electric field and simulated atomic trajectories in
the trap, which showed reasonable agreement with the experiment.Comment: 4pages, 4figures, to appear in Phys. Rev. Let
Detection of Macroscopic Entanglement by Correlation of Local Observables
We propose a correlation of local observables on many sites in macroscopic
quantum systems. By measuring the correlation one can detect, if any,
superposition of macroscopically distinct states, which we call macroscopic
entanglement, in arbitrary quantum states that are (effectively) homogeneous.
Using this property, we also propose an index of macroscopic entanglement.Comment: Although the index q was proposed for mixed states, it is also
applicable to pure states, on which we fix minor bugs (that will be reported
in PRL as erratum). The conclusions of the paper remain unchanged. (4 pages,
no figures.
