Non-adiabatic transitions in multilevel systems appear in various fields of physics, but it is not easy to analyze their dynamics in general. In this paper, we propose to extend the adiabatic impulse approximation to multilevel systems.…
The approach by Ettore Majorana for non-adiabatic transitions between two quasi-crossing levels is revisited. We rederive the transition probability, known as the Landau-Zener-St\"{u}ckelberg-Majorana formula, and introduce Majorana's…

Non-adiabatic transitions are studied in a spin-boson model with multiple scattering points. In order to generalize the Landau-Zener formula, which describes the case of a single scattering point, we define an ``effective gap'' for a set of…
A qubit may undergo Landau-Zener transitions due to its coupling to one or several quantum harmonic oscillators. We show that for a qubit coupled to one oscillator, Landau-Zener transitions can be used for single-photon generation and for…
