THE EFFECT OF SPREAD OF THE ATOMIC WAVE FUNCTION ON SOME STATISTICAL PROPERTIES OF THE FIELD
Abstract
This paper deals with the system of a two-level atom interacting with a quantized single-mode standing-wave cavity field, which is entangled with the centre-of-mass motion of the atom under the coexistence of the Kerr nonlinearity. We investigate the effect of the spread of the initial atomic wave function on some quantum statistical properties (such as Q distribution function, entropy and phase distribution) with or without the Kerr-like medium. Numerical computations and a discussion of the results are presented.
