Topological numbers of Happer model with puzzling degeneracy in periodic magnetic field


الملخص بالإنكليزية

The Happer model, as the variation of Rabi-Breit model, describes the interactions between the total nuclear spin and the total electron spin-1 of the triplet dimer molecules of ${}^{87}text{Rb}$. One interesting physical consequence of the Happer model is its puzzling degeneracy. In this paper, under the periodic driven magnetic field on total electron spin, the topological properties of the Happer model are present. Specifically, we calculate the Chern number of the system, both for the non-degenerate and degenerate cases. We show that the Chern number is closely related to the total angular momentum of the system, instead of the electron spin. Furthermore, the perturbing spin-axis interaction term is also introduced for detecting the influence on the corresponding topological Chern number. At last, in momentum space, we compare the Happer model with the topological semimetal in the sense of topological numbers. In such model, a magnetostatic shielding --like phenomena occurs.
