Measurement of a atom-reservoir entanglement in a system of coupled cavities
Fabiano Kenji Nohama, José Antonio Roversi
Abstract
We studied a system formed by a two-level atom and two coupled cavities, where the atom interacts with one of the cavities. We considered the case where one of the cavities is initially in the thermal state and analyzed the entanglement between the atom and the other cavity. In the initial states presented here, we observed that the raising of mean value of the thermal field causes a reduction in the atom-field entanglement without affecting the others aspects of its entanglement dynamics.
