The figure (obtained by simulation) shows the origin of interferences as a spin wave packet bounces off the boundary of a finite spin chain.  It appears as if there are an infinite number of copies of the chain and the boundary effects are produced by interferences between the different copies.

Welcome to the Ramanathan Lab in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Dartmouth College.  We are an experimental research group working at the interface of quantum information processing and condensed matter physics.  Our laboratory develops and uses magnetic resonance methods to control and characterize the quantum dynamics of solid state spin systems.
