Detection and engineering of spatial mode entanglement with ultra-cold bosons

preprint2009arXivOpen access

Abstract

We outline an interferometric scheme for the detection of bi-mode and multi-mode spatial entanglement of finite-temperature,interacting Bose gases of fixed particle number. Whether entanglement is present in the gas depends on the existence of the single-particle reduced density matrix between different regions of space. We apply the scheme to the problem of a harmonically trapped boson pair and show that while entanglement is rapidly decreasing with temperature, a significant amount remains for all interaction strengths at zero temperature.Thus, by tuning the interaction parameter, the distribution of entanglement between many spatial modes can be modified.
