Abstract
We study the spin dynamics of two magnetic chromium atoms trapped in a single site of a deep optical lattice in a resonant magnetic field. Dipole-dipole interactions couple spin degrees of freedom of two particles to their quantized orbital motion. A trap geometry combined with two-body contact $s$-wave interactions influence a spin dynamics through the energy spectrum of the two-atom system. Anharmonicity and anisotropy of the site results in a ``fine'' structure of two-body eigenenergies. The structure can be easily resolved by weak magnetic dipole-dipole interactions. As an example we examine the effect of anharmonicity and anisotropy of the binding potential on demagnetization processes. We show that weak dipolar interactions provide a perfect tool for precision spectroscopy of the energy spectrum of the interacting few particle system.
