Abstract

In this paper we present a general theoretical model for the interaction between a number of two-level atoms constituting Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) and a single-mode quantized field. In addition to the usual interacting terms, we take into account interatom as well as higher-order atom-field interactions. To simplify the Hamiltonian of system, after using the Bogoliubov approximation we proceed to calculate the transformed operators of atoms and field. Then, to quantify the spontaneous emission, we get analytical expressions for the expectation value of ?_z as the atomic population inversion (API), in the cases of number and coherent states for the atomic subsystem. Our results show that the above-mentioned model interaction leads to the appearance of collapse-revival phenomenon in API. In more detail, the revival time may be tuned by adjusting the interatom interaction constant. Also, the damping process lowers the amplitude of API, but does not change the CR times for weak damping. Moreover, increasing the damping may decrease the number of CRs in a given interval of time such that no revival occurs. Briefly, it may be concluded that in the resonant case the revival times are insensitive to the change of the higher-order atom-field interaction constant and are affected only by the interatom interactions. Finally, we express that, how we can find a practical procedure to measure the quantum states of atoms in BEC.
