Coherent Quantum Phase Slip in two-component bosonic Atomtronic Circuits

Coherent Quantum Phase Slip consists in the coherent transfer of vortices in superfluids. We investigate this phenomenon in two miscible coherently coupled components of a spinor Bose gas confined in a toroidal trap. After imprinting different vortex states on each component, we demonstrate that during the whole dynamics the system remains in a linear superposition of two current states in spite of the non-linearity and can be mapped onto a linear Josephson problem. We propose this system as a good candidate for the realization of a Mooij-Harmans qubit and remark its feasibility for implementation in current experiments with $^{87}\mbox{Rb}$, since we have used values for the physical parameters currently available in laboratories.
