Berry's Phase in the Presence of a Non-Adiabatic Environment

Frank Gaitan

We consider a two-level system coupled to an environment that evolves non-adiabatically. We present a non-perturbative method for determining the persistence amplitude whose phase contains all the corrections to Berry's phase produced by the non-adiabatic motion of the environment. Specifically, it includes the effects of transitions between the two energy levels to all orders in the non-adiabatic coupling. The problem of determining all non-adiabatic corrections is reduced to solving an ordinary differential equation to which numerical methods should provide solutions in a variety of situations. We apply our method to a particular example that can be realized as a magnetic resonance experiment, thus raising the possibility of testing our results in the lab.

Berry Phase in a Nonisolated System

Robert S. Whitney, Yuval Gefen

We investigate the effect of the environment on a Berry phase measurement involving a spin-half. We model the spin + environment using a biased spin-boson Hamiltonian with a time-dependent magnetic field. We find that, contrary to naive expectations, the Berry phase acquired by the spin can be observed, but only on time scales which are neither too short nor very long. However this Berry phase is not the same as for the isolated spin-half. It does not have a simple geometric interpretation in terms of the adiabatic evolution of either bare spin states or the dressed spin resonances. This result is crucial for proposed Berry phase measurements in superconducting nanocircuits.
