Topic 13: Quantum and nuclear physics
... Back in the very early 1900s physicists thought that within a few years everything having to do with physics would be discovered and the “book of physics” would be complete. This “book of physics” has come to be known as classical physics and consists of particles and mechanics on the one hand, an ...

States of an Ensemble of Two-Level Atoms with Reduced Quantum
... e < 1, although we are primarily interested in metrological gain, m < 1. Spin noise has been modified by atomic collisions [19– 21] and by absorption of squeezed light [15] . In dilute atomic systems, quantum nondemolition (QND) measurements with light [10–13,17,18,22] have reduced the projection ...

... What the generalized uncertainty relation implies is if two operators do not have a similar basis, then both observables cannot be known with zero uncertainty. Since the position and momentum operators are incompatible (do not commute), there exists an uncertainty between the two. For example, the m ...
