Diagonalizing the Jaynes-Cummings Hamiltonian and Jaynes-Cummings coherent states

Abstract

We determine the form of the unitary transformation that diagonalizes the Jaynes-Cummings Hamiltonian. This leads to operators the action of which has a simple interpretation in terms of the dressed states, the energy eigenstates. This suggests a set of coherent states and spin coherent states based on the dressed states.

Correlated coherent states in the Jaynes-Cummings model: I

É. M. Verlan, Margarita A. Razumova

In the representation of dressed states, which diagonalizes the Hamiltonian in the Jaynes-Cummings model, the Bose operator for excitation annihilation Â, the spin operator $$\hat \Sigma \_$$ , and the corresponding Hermitian-conjugate operators are found. Using these operators, correlated coherent states were constructed and statistical properties of a field mode and an atom in these states are studied. Nonclassical field properties, such as the deviation of the probability distribution for the number of photons from the Poissonian distribution, its time dependence, and the squeezing of quadrature field components are found. For small interaction coefficients k, all these characteristics of the model vary weakly in time in the resonance case.

The Jaynes-Cummings model and raising and lowering operators

Véronique Hussin, L M Nieto

Ladder operators acting on the energy eigenstates of the Jaynes-Cummings model in the rotating wave approximation are constructed using the fact that they satisfy some reasonable additionnal properties. In fact, we show that it is possible to write the Jaynes-Cummings Hamiltonian as a product of such ladder operators. It may be relevant for the study of new sets of coherent states for this model.

Solving a Generalized Jaynes-Cummings Model by Supersymmetric Unitary Transformation

Lu Huai-Xin, Wang Xiao-Qin, Fan Hong-Yi

For the generalized Jaynes-Cummings model Hamiltonian which can describe two collectively radiation atoms, we find its supersymmetric structure. Based on supersymmetric quantum mechanics theory, we introduce a supersymmetric unitary transformation, in which the supersymmetric unitary transformation operator can be constructed by supersymmetric generators of the super-Lie algebra, to diagonalize the Hamiltonian. On doing so, its eigenvalue and eigenstates are obtained.

Jaynes-Cummings model diagonalization based on symmetry

G. Benivegna, ANTONINO MESSINA

We illustrate a new systematic diagonalization procedure through its application to the well known Jaynes-Cummings model. Our method, starting from the consideration of peculiar invariance properties of the Hamiltonian, singles out specific constants of motion by which we succeed in introducing appropriate unitary transformations accomplishing a canonical reduction of the Hamiltonian into a diagonal form. The potentialities of the treatment is briefly discussed.
