Spiral Ferromagnetic State of F=1 condensateGross-Pitaevski equation
Mean-field spiral state
The nature of the mean-field state depends on the system preparation.
Sudden twisting
Instabillities can be obtained from the analysis of collective modes
Adiabatic limit: determined from the condition of the stationary state.

Squeezed spin states for spectroscopy
Generation of spin squeezing using interactions.Two component BEC. Single mode approximation
Motivation: improved spectroscopy, e.g. Wineland et. al. PRA 50:67 (1994)
Kitagawa, Ueda, PRA 47:5138 (1993)
In the single mode approximation we can neglect kinetic energy terms

Spin echo. Time reversal experiments
No revival?
Expts: A. Widera, I. Bloch et al.
Experiments done in array of tubes. Strong fluctuations in 1d systems.Single mode approximation does not apply.Need to analyze the full model

Interaction induced collapse of Ramsey fringes.Multimode analysis
Luttinger model
Changing the sign of the interaction reverses the interaction part of the Hamiltonian but not the kinetic energy
Time dependent harmonic oscillatorscan be analyzed exactly
Low energy effective theory: Luttinger liquid approach

Interaction induced collapse of Ramsey fringesin one dimensional systems
Fundamental limit on Ramsey interferometry
Only q=0 mode shows complete spin echoFinite q modes continue decay
The net visibility is a result of competition between q=0 and other modes
Conceptually similar to experiments withdynamics of split condensates.T. Schumm’s talk
