# Spectroscopy and spin dynamics for strongly interacting few spinor bosons in one-dimensional traps

## TL;DR

This paper investigates the spin dynamics and energy level structure of a few strongly interacting spin-1 bosons in one-dimensional traps, revealing how their quantum states evolve and how symmetry and interactions influence their behavior.

## Contribution

It provides a detailed analysis of the energy spectrum, level crossing, and spin-mixing dynamics of strongly interacting spinor bosons beyond the SU(3) integrable point.

## Key findings

- Energy spectrum degeneracy is lifted away from the SU(3) point.
- Spin-mixing dynamics are highly sensitive to the ratio g0/g2.
- Effective spin chain models outperform Heisenberg models in state transfer accuracy.

## Abstract

We consider a one-dimensional trapped gas of strongly interacting few spin-1 atoms which can be described by an effective spin chain Hamiltonian. Away from the SU(3) integrable point, where the energy spectrum is highly degenerate, the rules of ordering and crossing of the energy levels and the symmetry of the eigenstates in the regime of large but finite repulsion have been elucidated. We study the spin-mixing dynamics which is shown to be very sensitive to the ratio between the two channel interactions g0/g2 and the effective spin chain transfers the quantum states more perfectly than the Heisenberg bilinear-biquadratic spin chain.
