Supersymmetrie, Verschränkung und Dynamik polarer paramagnetischer Moleküle in kombinierten elektrischen, magnetischen und optischen Feldern
Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse
Perhaps the greatest enrichment of the literature on analytic solvability and supersymmetry is the connection that we have established between the conditions of analytic solvability and the topology of the eigenenergy surfaces. Much of our effort went into explaining this unexpected and far-reaching connection as well as into making use of it. Another general result – obtained for the example of a quantum pendulum (both planar and spherical) – is the connection that we have established between the symmetry of the physical problem and the classes of quasianalytic solutions. Our work on analytic solvability has so far culminated in a generalization that relies on the quantum Hamilton-Jacobi theory and that provides a systematic way of identifying a plethora of novel quasi-analytic solutions. Our work on entanglement, another topic of the proposal, has led to novel schemes for quantum computing with arrays of trapped polar paramagnetic molecules. This work relied on a detailed quantum-mechanical analysis of a pair of polar paramagnetic rotors coupled by the electric-dipole interaction. Our work on the dynamics of molecules subject to time-varying fields concentrated on unipolar pulses interacting with polar and polarizable molecular rotors. For short pulses, many of the dynamical features have been rendered in analytic form, providing valuable insights into the workings of kicked-rotor dynamics.
