Backscattering properties of a waveguide-coupled array of atoms in the strongly nonparaxial regime

D. Reitz, C. Sayrin, B. Albrecht, I. Mazets, R. Mitsch, P. Schneeweiss, and A. Rauschenbeutel

Phys. Rev. A 89, 031804(R) (2014) - Published 28 March, 2014

An experimental investigation of the properties of light backscattered by an array of Cs atoms trapped by an evanescent field from a nanofiber shows that the power and the polarization of the backscattered light depend on the nanofiber-guided excitation field in a way that significantly deviates from previous predictions.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Nonexistence of entangled continuous-variable Werner states with positive partial transpose

Daniel McNulty, Richard Tatham, and Ladislav Mišta, Jr.

Phys. Rev. A 89, 032315 (2014) - Published 12 March, 2014

Analytical calculations show that positive-partial-transpose continuous-variable entangled Werner states do not to exist and sophisticated non-Gaussian measurements, distinct from photon counting, to optimally extract nonclassical correlations are constructed.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Ground-state hyperfine splitting in the Be $^{+}$ ion

Mariusz Puchalski and Krzysztof Pachucki

Phys. Rev. A 89, 032510 (2014) - Published 13 March, 2014

A nonrelativistic QED approach to the hyperfine splitting in light atomic systems is developed and valuable information about the finite nuclear distribution is obtained.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Theoretical transition frequencies beyond 0.1 ppb accuracy in $H_{2}^{+}$ , ${HD}^{+}$ , and antiprotonic helium

Vladimir I. Korobov, Laurent Hilico, and Jean-Philippe Karr

Phys. Rev. A 89, 032511 (2014) - Published 14 March, 2014

The QED correction to the transitions in hydrogen molecular ions and in antiprotonic helium are evaluated, opening the way to new approaches in precision metrology and allowing for precise determination of proton- and antiproton-to-electron mass ratios.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Three-level superadiabatic quantum driving

Luigi Giannelli and Ennio Arimondo

Phys. Rev. A 89, 033419 (2014) - Published 17 March, 2014

Split Fermi seas in one-dimensional Bose fluids

T. Fokkema, I. S. Eliëns, and J.-S. Caux

Phys. Rev. A 89, 033637 (2014) - Published 31 March, 2014

Highly excited states in a one-dimensional repulsive Bose gas possess a richer excitation spectrum than the ground state and display a number of interesting features in their correlations.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Non-Markovian dynamics and steady-state entanglement of cavity arrays in finite-bandwidth squeezed reservoirs

S. Zippilli and F. Illuminati

Phys. Rev. A 89, 033803 (2014) - Published 4 March, 2014

A non-Markovian model for a dual array of coupled cavities driven by a finite-bandwidth parametric oscillator shows that entanglement can be generated under realistic experimental conditions in these systems.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Nonlinear optomechanical pressure

Claudio Conti and Robert Boyd

Phys. Rev. A 89, 033834 (2014) - Published 19 March, 2014

A theoretical analysis of nonlinear optical effects on optomechanical radiation pressure shows that the optomechanical force may become negative under suitable conditions, enabling a range of interesting applications, and suggests that this effect might be measurable in a material system such as graphene.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Dispersion-induced dynamics of coupled modes in a semiconductor laser with saturable absorption

Finbarr O'Callaghan, Simon Osborne, and Stephen O'Brien

Phys. Rev. A 89, 033848 (2014) - Published 25 March, 2014

An experimental and theoretical study of the dynamics of a dual-mode semiconductor laser with a saturable absorber is presented, providing insights into the factors that determine the stability of multimode states in these systems and contributing to the development of semiconductor mode-locked lasers with tailored spectra.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Three-dimensional light-matter interface for collective spin squeezing in atomic ensembles
