We investigate the decoherence of a spin 1/2 subsystem weakly coupled to an environment of many spins 1/2 with and without mutual coupling. The total system is closed, its state is pure and evolves under Schroedinger dynamics. Nevertheless,…

The Tavis-Cummings model (the Dicke model treated in the rotating wave approximation) describing many two-level systems coupled to a single bosonic mode, has been long known to show collective semiclassical oscillations when prepared in an…

In this letter we propose a protocol to reverse a quantum many-body dynamical process. We name it "many-body echo" because the underlying physics is closely related to the spin echo effect in nuclear magnetic resonance systems. We consider…
