Abstract

We investigate spin squeezing and quantum Fisher information dynamics of a collection of interacting spins with a strong external field. Approximate analytical expressions of the spin squeezing parameter and quantum Fisher information are presented. Our analysis shows that the spin squeezing always appears in the z direction with an extended period and that spin squeezing and quantum Fisher information are controlled by adjusting the strength of the internal field and the total atomic number.
