Quantum interferences at nuclear level crossing

Hyperfine Interactions Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

Two nuclear hyperfine levels can cross when a quadrupole and magnetic interaction are combined. When the levels come close enough, interferences between two transitions can occur if coherence conditions are fulfilled. In this paper we discuss the possibility that coherence and interferences could occur if the zero fluctuations of an electromagnetic field in a crystal lattice would be anisotropic.
