Squeezing of a coupled state of two spinors

The notion of spin squeezing involves reduction in the uncertainty of a component of the spin vector below a certain limit. This aspect has been studied earlier for pure and mixed states of definite spin. In this paper, this study has been extended to coupled spin states which do not possess sharp spin value. A general squeezing criterion has been obtained by requiring that a direct product state for two spinors is not squeezed. The squeezing aspect of entangled states is studied in relation to their spin- spin correlations.

Spin squeezing of mixed systems

The notion of spin squeezing has been discussed in this paper using the density matrix formalism. Extending the definition of squeezing for pure states given by Kitagawa and Ueda in an appropriate manner and employing the spherical tensor representation, we show that mixed spin states which are non-oriented and possess vector polarization indeed exhibit squeezing. We construct a mixed state of a spin 1 system using two spin 1/2 states and study its squeezing behaviour as a function of the individual polarizations of the two spinors.
