Evolution of a single spin in ideal Bose gas at finite temperatures

Quantum Gases 2026-05-14 v2 Quantum Physics

Abstract

We study the finite-temperature dynamics of non-interacting bosons with a single static spinful impurity immersed. A non-zero contact boson-impurity pairwise interaction is assumed only for the spin-up impurity state. By tracing out bosonic degrees of freedom, the exact time evolution of the impurity spin is calculated for pure and mixed initial ensembles of states. The time-dependent momentum distribution of bosons initially created in the Bose-condensed state and driven by the interaction with spin is analyzed.
