Abstract.

An analytical description is given for a model which represents the interaction between \(Su(1,1)\) and Su(2) quantum systems taking into account \(Su(1,1)\)-cavity damping and Kerr medium properties. The analytic solution for the master equation of the density matrix is obtained. The examination of the effects of the damping parameter as well as the Kerr-like medium features is performed. The atomic inversion is discussed where the revivals and collapses phenomenon is realized at the considered period of time. Our study is extended to include the degree of entanglement where the system shows partial entanglement in all cases, however, disentanglement is also observed. The death and rebirth is seen in the system provided one selects the suitable values of the parameters. The correlation function of the system shows non-classical as well as classical behavior.
