چکیده

We use recent results on precise coupling terms in the optimal superadiabatic basis in order to determine exponentially small transition probabilities in the adiabatic limit of time-dependent two-level systems. As examples, we discuss the Landau-Zener and the Rosen-Zener models.

Exponential Estimates in Adiabatic Quantum Evolution

We review recent results concerning the exponential behaviour of transition probabilities across a gap in the adiabatic limit of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation. They range from an exponential estimate in quite general situations to asymptotic Landau-Zener type formulae for finite dimensional systems, or systems reducible to this case.

Landau-zener Transitions in the Presence of Spin Environment

We study the effect of an environment consisting of noninteracting two level systems on Landau-Zener transitions with an interest on the performance of an adiabatic quantum computer. We show that if the environment is initially at zero temperature, it does not affect the transition probability. An excited environment, however, will always increase the probability of making a transition out of t...

Non-Adiabatic Transition in Spin-Boson Model and Generalization of the Landau–Zener Formula

Non-adiabatic transitions are studied in a spin-boson model with multiple scattering points. In order to generalize the Landau–Zener formula, which describes the case of a single scattering point, we define an “effective gap” for a set of scattering points. The generalized formula agrees very well with numerical results of the nonadiabatic dynamics, which we obtained by a direct numerical metho...

Fast quantum noise in the Landau-Zener transition

We show by direct calculation starting from a microscopic model that the two-state system with timedependent energy levels in the presence of fast quantum noise obeys the master equation. The solution of master equation is found analytically and analyzed in a broad range of parameters. The fast transverse noise affects the transition probability during much longer time the accumulation time tha...

Investigation of Temperature Effect in Landau-Zener Avoided Crossing

Considering a temperature dependent two-level quantum system, we have numerically solved the Landau-Zener transition problem. The method includes the incorporation of temperature effect as a thermal noise added Schrödinger equation for the construction of the Hamiltonian. Here, the obtained results which describe the changes in the system including the quantum states and the transition pro...
