Probing BEC phase fluctuations with atomic quantum dots

We consider the dephasing of two internal states |0〉 and |1〉 of a trapped impurity atom, a so-called atomic quantum dot (AQD), where only state 1〉 couples to a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC). A direct relation between the dephasing of the internal states of the AQD and the temporal phase fluctuation...
