Landau–Zener–Stückelberg–Majorana interference of a spin-orbit-coupled Bose–Einstein condensate

The spin-orbit-coupled (SOC) ultracold atomic gases provide unique opportunities for exploring exotic quantum phases and introduce new capabilities into the quantum simulation. In this paper, we study the coherent control of spin states in SOC Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) by exploiting and implementing the general concept of Landau–Zener–Stueckelberg–Majorana (LZSM) interference. For a SOC BEC, the Landau–Zener (LZ) transition between the...
