We have investigated noise-induced transition of atoms between double or triple phase-space attractors that are produced in the parametrically driven magneto-optical trap. The transition rates between two or three dynamic attractors,…
We study a system of $N$ noninteracting particles on a line in the presence of a harmonic trap $U(x)=\mu \bigl[x-z(t)\bigr]^2/2$, where the trap center $z(t)$ undergoes a bounded stochastic modulation. We show that this stochastic…
