A Geometrical Characteristic of the Mixing Effect Induced by Non-Abelian Berry's Phase

Hiroshi Asakura

A geometrical characteristic of the mixing effect induced by the non-Abelian Berry's phase appearing in a nuclear quadrupole system (I = 3/2) rotating about two axes is examined by using the rotating frame formulation. We show that the geometry-dependent parts of the mixing effect appear in the magnitude of the probability amplitude of the spin states and the rate of non-trivial mixing among these states after one period of motion of the system. These values depend only on the geometrical parameters which determine the trajectory traced by the principal-axis defined as the direction of the symmetry axis of the quadrupolar interaction.

Mixing Effect in a Nuclear Quadrupole System Induced by Non-Abelian Berry's Phase

H. Asakura, Akio Sakurai

We examine the mixing effect induced by the non-Abelian Berry's phase appearing in a nuclear quadrupole system rotating about two axes by using the rotating frame formulation. A non-trivial mixing between spin states after one period of motion is found. The origin of the mixing is discussed.

Wave Packet Dynamics in Synthetic Non-Abelian Gauge Fields

Mehedi Hasan, Chetan Sriram Madasu, Ketan D. Rathod +4 more

It is generally admitted that in quantum mechanics, the electromagnetic potentials have physical interpretations otherwise absent in classical physics as illustrated by the Aharonov-Bohm effect. In 1984, Berry interpreted this effect as a geometrical phase factor. The same year, Wilczek and Zee generalized the concept of Berry phases to degenerate levels and showed that a non-Abelian gauge field arises in these systems. In sharp contrast with the Abelian case, spatially uniform non-Abelian gauge fields can induce particle noninertial motion. We explore this intriguing phenomenon with a degenerated Fermionic atomic gas subject to a two-dimensional synthetic SU(2) non-Abelian gauge field. We reveal the spin Hall nature of the noninertial dynamic as well as its anisotropy in amplitude and frequency due to the spin texture of the system. We finally draw the similarities and differences of the observed wave packet dynamic and the celebrated Zitterbewegung effect of the relativistic Dirac equation.
