Verifying a quasi-classical spin model of perturbed quantum rewinding in a Fermi gas

Abstract

We systematically test a quasi-classical spin model of a large spin-lattice in energy space, with a tunable, reversible Hamiltonian and effective long-range interactions. The system is simulated by a weakly interacting Fermi gas undergoing perturbed quantum rewinding using radio-frequency(RF) pulses. The model reported here is found to be in a quantitative agreement with measurements of the ensemble-averaged energy-resolved spin density. This work elucidates the effects of RF detunings on the system and measurements, pointing the way to new correlation measurement methods.Comment: 13 pages 8 figure
