Quantum Zeno Effect Induced by Quantum Measurement of Momentum of Atomic Mass Center

Wang Xiaoguang · Chinese Physics Letters · 1995

In this article, we obtained the factorization form of the evolution operator corresponding to the Hamiltonian which describes the interaction of a two-level atom with one propagating mode in an optical ring cavity and the exact solution is followed. A new scheme for realizing quantum Zeno effect is proposed by measuring the atomic momentum (external state) frequently to freeze the atomic energy state (internal state) in its initial energy state.
