Entanglement in spatial adiabatic processes for interacting atoms

TL;DR

This paper investigates how entanglement can be generated and controlled in systems of interacting atoms using adiabatic processes, highlighting the roles of atom interactions and trap distributions.

Contribution

It introduces a detailed analysis of entanglement dynamics in adiabatic protocols for interacting atoms, identifying two key sources of entanglement creation.

Findings

Entanglement can be systematically generated in adiabatic processes.

Both atom-atom interactions and trap distributions contribute to entanglement.

Controlled entanglement creation is feasible in few-atom systems.

Abstract

We study the dynamics of the non-classical correlations for few atom systems in the presence of strong interactions for a number of recently developed adiabatic state preparation protocols. We show that entanglement can be created in a controlled fashion and can be attributed to two distinct sources, the atom-atom interaction and the distribution of atoms among different traps.
