Regulating entanglement production in multitrap Bose-Einstein condensates

A system of traps is considered, each containing a large number of Bosecondensed atoms. This ensemble of traps is subject to the action of an external modulating field generating nonequilibrium nonground-state condensates. When the frequency of the modulating field is in resonance with the transition frequency between two different topological coherent modes, each trap becomes an analog of a finite-level resonant atom. Similarly to the case of atoms in an electromagnetic resonant field, one can create entanglement between atomic traps subject to a common resonant modulating field generating higher coherent modes in each of the traps. A method is suggested for regulating entanglement production in such a system of multitrap and multimode Bose-Einstein condensates coupled through a common resonant modulating field. Several regimes of evolutional entanglement production, regulated by manipulating the external field, are illustrated by numerical calculations. 03.65.Ud, 03.67.Mn, 03.75.Gg Typeset using REVTEX 1
