Recently it has been shown that the quadrupole interactions can be improved significantly as the atom interacts at near resonance with the Laguerre-Gaussian (LG) mode. In this paper, we illustrate that other kinds of optical vortex can be also led to a considerable enhancement of quadrupole interaction when the atom interacts with optical modes at near resonance. The calculations are performed on an interesting situation with Cs atom, where the process is concerned with dipole-forbidden and quadrupole-allowed transitions with a convenable choice of atomic and optical mode parameters. In this direction, we show that the quadrupole transitions can be significantly enhanced and therefore they can play an interesting role and lead to new features of atom-light interaction, which can have some constructive implications in experiments., Comment: 9 pages, 10 figures

We consider a simple cavity optomechanics and study the ground-state cooling of mechanical resonator in the quantum regime. Using the effective master equations in the linear regime, the equations of motion can be obtained for the second order moments. The steady state solutions are derived in the case where the antiresonant terms are ignored. The final mean value of phonon number is compared to the case where the antiresonant terms are included. We find that the ground-state cooling in the last case is improved. Indeed, the inclusion of the antiresonant terms makes the system able to generate a squeezed field, which is required for enhancing cooling. The variances of the resultant field are presented. Analytic calculations are presented in some appropriate regimes. Then our analytic predictions are confirmed with numerical calculations., Comment: 7 pages, 7 figures

In this paper we deal with the well-known nonlinear Lorenz system that describes the deterministic chaos phenomenon. We consider an interesting problem with time-varying phenomena in quantum optics. Then we establish from the motion equations the passage to the Lorenz system. Furthermore, we show that the reduction to the third order non linear equation can be performed. Therefore, the obtained differential equation can be analytically solved in some special cases and transformed to Abel, Dufing, Painlev\'{e} and generalized Emden-Fowler equations. So, a motivating technique that permitted a complete and partial integrability of the Lorenz system is presented., Comment: 10 pages, 2 figures
