The collisional interaction in a Bose condensate represents a non-linearity
which in analogy with non-linear optics gives rise to unique quantum features.
In this paper we apply a Monte Carlo method based on the positive P
pseudo-probability distribution from quantum optics to analyze the efficiency
of spin squeezing by collisions in a two-component condensate. The squeezing
can be controlled by choosing appropiate collision parameters or by
manipulating the motional states of the two components.Comment: 5 pages, 2 figures. Submitted to Phys. Rev.
