Oscillations in Quantum Entanglement During Rescattering

We study the time evolution of quantum entanglement between an electron and its parent ion during the rescattering due to a strong few-cycle laser pulse. Based on a simple one-dimensional model, we compute the Neumann entropy during the process for several values of the carrier-envelope phase. The local maxima of the oscillations in the Neumann entropy coincide with the zero crossings of the electric field of the laser pulse. We employ the Wigner function to qualitatively explain the quantum dynamics of rescattering in the phase space.

Time dependence of quantum entanglement in the collision of two particles

We follow the emergence of quantum entanglement in a scattering event between two initially uncorrelated distinguishable quantum particles interacting via a delta potential. We calculate the time dependence of the Neumann entropy of the one-particle reduced density matrix. By using the exact propagator for the delta potential, we derive an approximate analytic formula for the asymptotic form of the two-particle wave function which is sufficiently accurate to account for the entanglement features of the system.
