We examine the conditions in favor and necessity of a realistic multileveled description of a decohering quantum system. Under these conditions approximate techniques to simplify a multileveled system by its first two levels is unreliable…

We address the issue of determining an effective two-body interaction for mean-field calculations of energies of many-body systems. We show that the effective interaction is proportional to the phase shift, and demonstrate this result in…
The quantum dynamics of a dense and dipole-dipole coupled ensemble of two-level emitters interacting via their environmental thermostat is investigated. The static dipole-dipole interaction strengths are being considered strong enough but…
Up to date, the life time of experimentally demonstrated entangled states has been limited, due to their fragility under decoherence and dissipation. Therefore, they are created under strict isolation conditions. In contrast, new approaches…

It is observed that low-lying transitions of an interstitial hydrogen adatom on a metallic lattice correspond classically to dipoles oscillating at frequencies where band electrons typically have a low electromagnetic absorption. Such…
We consider a pair of identical two-level atoms interacting with a scalar field in one dimension, separated by a distance $x_{21}$. We restrict our attention to states where one atom is excited and the other is in the ground state, in…
The dipole-dipole interaction among ultra-cold Rydberg atoms is simulated. We examine a general interaction scheme in which two atoms excited to the x and x' states are converted to y and y' states via a Forster resonance. The atoms are…
Dipole-dipole interaction is a long-range interaction, hence we could expect that the self-consistent field approximation might be applied. In most cases it is correct, but dipolar BECs reveal a surprise. Structure of the self-consistent…
