Magnetic oscillations for neutral atoms subject to an electromagnetic field

Abstract

We show that the de Haas van Alphen effect can be induced in a two dimensional atomic gas by the He-McKellar-Wilkens interaction mediated via an electric dipole moment. Under an appropriate field-dipole configuration, we show that the neutral atoms subject to a synthetic magnetic field arrange themselves in Landau levels. An experimental arrangement for observation of the atomic analog of dHvA oscillations is proposed. In a strong effective magnetic field regime we present the quantum oscillations in the energy and effective magnetization of the two dimensional atomic gas. From the dHvA period we determine the area of the Fermi circle of the atomic cloud.

An analog of magnetic oscillations for neutral atoms with induced electric dipole

B. Farias, Claudio Furtado

We show that the analog of de Haas–van Alphen effect (adHvA) can be generated in a two-dimensional (2D) atomic gas by the interaction between an induced electric dipole and an electromagnetic field. When the neutral atoms move in a properly designed field configuration, we have a quantization similar to the Landau levels. The effective magnetic field dependence of the oscillation amplitude of the the energy and the analog magnetization of the atomic cloud are studied. We also estimate the area of the Fermi circle of the atomic gas.

Artificial magnetism for a harmonically trapped Fermi gas in a synthetic magnetic field

Shyamal Biswas, Avijit Ghosh, Soumyadeep Majumder

We have analytically explored the artificial magnetism for a 3D spin-polarized harmonically trapped ideal Fermi gas of electrically neutral particles exposed to a uniform synthetic magnetic field. Though polarization of the spin is necessary for trapping electrically neutral atoms in a magneto-optical trap, Pauli paramagnetism can not be studied for the spin-polarized Fermi system. However, it is possible to study Landau diamagnetism and de Haas-van Alphen effect for such a system. We have unified the artificial Landau diamagnetism and the artificial de Haas-van Alphen effect in a single framework for all temperatures as well as for all possible magnitudes of the synthetic magnetic field in the thermodynamic limit. Our prediction is testable in the present-day experimental setup for ultracold fermionic atoms in magneto-optical trap.

Oscillation of Pauli Paramagnetism in Rotating Two-Component Fermionic Atom Gases

Beibing Huang, Shaolong Wan

By rotating two-component fermionic atom gases in uniform magnetic field, a similar physical situation with de Haas-van Alphen effect is constructed. We calculate magnetic moment of the system and find that owing to an existence of effective magnetic field coming from the rotation, the magnetic moment also shows the oscillatory behavior about magnetic field, but it is completely different from the famous oscillation of de Haas-van Alphen effect. This distinction is due to that in the atomic gases the orbital motion of atom only couples to rotation and does not contribute to magnetic moment in the light of atomic charge neutrality.

Slow Light in Degenerate Fermi Gases

Gediminas Juzeliūnas, Patrik Öhberg

We investigate the effect of slow light propagating in a degenerate atomic Fermi gas. In particular we use slow light with an orbital angular momentum. We present a microscopic theory for the interplay between light and matter and show how the slow light can provide an effective magnetic field acting on the electrically neutral fermions, a direct analogy of the free electron gas in an uniform magnetic field. As an example we illustrate how the corresponding de Haas-van Alphen effect can be seen in a gas of neutral atomic fermions.

Two-dimensional noncommutative atom gas with the Anandan interaction

Yu Xiao-Min, Kang Li B

Landau-like quantization of the Anandan system in a special electromagnetic field is studied. Unlike the cases of the Aharonov-Casher (AC) system and the He-McKellar-Wilkens (HMW) system, the torques of the system on the magnetic dipole and the electric dipole do not vanish. By constructing Heisenberg algebra, the Landau analog levels and eigenstates on commutative space, noncommutative (NC) space, and NC phase space are obtained, respectively. By using the coherent state method, some statistical properties of such free-atom gas are studied and the expressions of some thermodynamic quantities related to revolution direction are obtained. Two particular cases of temperature are discussed and the more simple expressions of the free energy on the three spaces are obtained. We give the relation between the value of $\ensuremath{\sigma}$ and revolution direction clearly and find Landau like levels of the Anandan system are invariant and the levels between the AC system and the HMW system are interchanged each other under Maxwell dual transformations on the three spaces. The two sets of eigenstates labeled by $\ensuremath{\sigma}$ can be related by a supersymmetry transformation on commutative space, but the phenomenon do not occur on NC situation. We emphasize that some results relevant to Anandan interaction are suitable for the cases of AC interaction and HMW interaction under special conditions.

Exactly soluble model of two-dimensional interacting fermions in a uniform magnetic field

Erik C. Sowa, L. M. Falicov

The spectrum of a Hamiltonian for $N$ harmonically interacting two-dimensional particles in a constant perpendicular magnetic field is determined exactly by the transformation to normal coordinates. The energy of the ground state consistent with Fermi-Dirac statistics is calculated in the limit of a strong magnetic field. The Fermi energy is found to exhibit de Haas---van Alphen---like oscillations.
