Semi-analytical method for ensemble of Rydberg atoms

The problem for determination of wave function for an ensemble of Rydberg atoms requires solution of a set of ordinaries differential equations. The number of equations increases exponentially with the number of atoms. The solution of this problem is of oscillatory type character. Calculation of the oscillation's phase and normalization of the wave function with a high degree of accuracy is very difficult for times which are much greater than the oscillations period. In the article, we suggest a very effective semi-analytic splitting method for finding of the wave function for the ensemble of Rydberg atoms. It is based on analytical (exact) solution of the problem for two states (two connected oscillators). The method gives very high accuracy for determination of the wave function (including the phases of the function) and exactly conserves particles number. It takes several hours for PC to calculate the ensemble of ten atoms with 3 levels. Earlier ensemble of only 7 atoms was calculated using Adam's type methods. The suggested semi-analytical method can be implemented to other similar problems.
