Title: Wigner's Phase Space Current for Variable Beam Splitters -Seeing Beam Splitters in a New Light-
Authors: Ole Steuernagel, Ray-Kuang Lee,
Abstract summary: We study the behaviour of variable beam splitters and their dynamics using Wigner's phase space distribution, W. We derive the form of the corresponding Wigner current, J, of each outgoing mode after tracing out the other. The influence of the modes on each other is analyzed and visualized using their respective Wigner distributions and Wigner currents.

Abstract: Beam splitters allow us to superpose two continuous single mode quantum systems. To study the behaviour of their strongly mode mixing dynamics we consider variable beam splitters and their dynamics using Wigner's phase space distribution, W, the evolution of which is governed by the continuity-equation $ \frac{\partial}{\partial \tau} W = - {\nabla } \cdot {J}$. We derive the form of the corresponding Wigner current, J, of each outgoing mode after tracing out the other. The influence of the modes on each other is analyzed and visualized using their respective Wigner distributions and Wigner currents. This allows us to perform geometrical analyses of the mode interactions, casting new light on beam splitter behaviour. Several of the presented results should be immediately testable in experiments.

Wigner-negative states in the steady-state emission of a two-level system driven by squeezed light [0.0]
Propagating modes of light with negative-valued Wigner distributions are of fundamental interest in quantum optics. We show the possibility of deterministic generation of Wigner-negativity in temporal modes of the steady-state emission of a two-level system driven by finite-bandwidth quadrature-squeezed light.

Rotation-driven transition into coexistent Josephson modes in an atomtronic dc-SQUID [0.0]
We show that transitions to different arrays of coexistent regimes in the phase space can be attained by rotating a double-well system. In particular, we show that within a determined rotation frequency interval, a hopping parameter, usually disregarded in nonrotating systems, turns out to rule the dynamics.

Geometric phase in a dissipative Jaynes-Cummings model: theoretical explanation for resonance robustness [68.8204255655161]
We compute the geometric phases acquired in both unitary and dissipative Jaynes-Cummings models. In the dissipative model, the non-unitary effects arise from the outflow of photons through the cavity walls. We show the geometric phase is robust, exhibiting a vanishing correction under a non-unitary evolution.

We propose applying time-dependent photo-emission spectroscopy, an established tool in solid state systems, in cold atom quantum simulators. We show in exact diagonalization simulations of the one-dimensional $t-J$ model that the spinons start to populate previously unoccupied states in an effective band structure. The dependence of the spectral function on the time after the pump pulse reveals collective interactions among spinons.
