We study coherent photoassociation, phenomena analogous to coherent optical transients in few-level systems, which may take place in photoassociation of an atomic Bose-Einstein condensate but not in a nondegenerate gas. We develop a…
We introduce a group-theoretical extension of the Dicke model which describes an ensemble of two-level atoms interacting with a finite radiation field. The latter is described by a spin model whose main feature is that it possesses a…

The phase transition to a Bose-Einstein condensate is unusual in that it is not necessarily driven by inter-particle interactions but can occur in an ideal gas as a result of a purely statistical saturation of excited states. However,…
We analyze the model of an atomic Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) parametrically coupled to a molecular BEC via a photoassociation process. We show that an interplay of nonlinear inter- and intra-species interactions leads to the formation…

We consider the interaction between a Bose-Einstein condensate and a single-mode quantized light field in the presence of a strong far off-resonant pump laser. The dynamics is characterized by an exponential instability, hence the system…
Dicke model predicts a quantum phase transition from normal to superradiant phases for a two-level atomic ensemble coupled with an optical cavity at zero temperature. In a recent pioneer experiment [Nature 464, 1301 (2010)], such a phase…
Information about quantum phase transitions in conventional condensed matter systems, must be sought by probing the matter system itself. By contrast, we show that mixed matter-light systems offer a distinct advantage in that the photon…
The quantum phase transition of the Dicke-model has been observed recently in a system formed by motional excitations of a laser-driven Bose--Einstein condensate coupled to an optical cavity [1]. The cavity-based system is intrinsically…
