- Abstract: We experimentally demonstrate a multi-mode interferometer comprising a
Bose-Einstein condensate of $^{39}$K atoms trapped in a harmonic potential,
where the interatomic interaction can be cancelled exploiting Feshbach
resonances. Kapitza-Dirac diffraction from an optical lattice coherently splits
the BEC in multiple momentum components equally spaced that form different
interferometric paths, closed by the trapping harmonic potential. We
investigate two different interferometric schemes, where the recombination
pulse is applied after a full or half oscillation in the confining potential.
We find that the relative amplitudes of the momentum components at the
interferometer output are sensitive to external forces, through the induced
displacement of the harmonic potential with respect to the optical lattice. We
show how to calibrate the interferometer, fully characterize its output and
discuss perspective improvements.

emitters via two-photon excitation [49.1574468325115]
Two non-identical quantum emitters, when placed within a cavity and coherently excited at the two-photon resonance, can reach stationary states of nearly maximal entanglement.
We show that this mechanism is merely one among a complex family of phenomena that can generate both stationary and metastable entanglement when driving the emitters at the two-photon resonance.

Quantum asymmetry is a physical resource which coincides with the amount of coherence between the eigenspaces of a generator.
We show that the asymmetry may emphincrease as a result of a emphdecrease of coherence inside a degenerate subspace.

We examine how non-destructive measurements generate spin squeezing in an atomic Bose-Einstein condensate confined in a double-well trap.
The condensate in each well is monitored using coherent light beams in a Mach-Zehnder configuration that interacts with the atoms through a quantum nondemolition Hamiltonian.
We find that monitoring the condensate at zero detection current and with identical coherent light beams minimizes the backaction of the measurement on the atoms.
