Abstract
We investigate the quantum measurement noise effects on the dynamics of an atomic Bose lattice gas inside an optical resonator. We describe the dynamics by means of a hybrid model consisting of a Bose-Hubbard Hamiltonian for the atoms and a Heisenberg-Langevin equation for the lossy cavity-field mode. We assume that the atoms are prepared initially in the ground state of the lattice Hamiltonian and then start to interact with the cavity mode. We show that the cavity-field fluctuations originating from the dissipative outcoupling of photons from the resonator lead to vastly different effects in the different possible ground-state phases, i.e., the superfluid, the supersolid, the Mott and charge-density-wave phases. In the former two phases with the presence of a superfluid wavefunction, the quantum measurement noise appears as a driving term leading to depletion of the ground state. The timescale for the system to leave the ground state is presented in a simple analytical form. For the latter two incompressible phases, the quantum noise results in the fluctuation of the chemical potential. We derive an analytical expression for the corresponding broadening of the quasiparticle resonances.
