We study the coupled translational, electronic, and field dynamics of the combined system “a two-level atom + a single-mode quantized field + a standing-wave ideal cavity”. In the semiclassical approximation with a point-like atom, interacting with the classical field, the dynamics is described by the Heisenberg equations for the atomic and field expectation values which are known to produce semiclassical chaos under appropriate conditions. We derive Hamilton–Schrödinger equations for probability amplitudes and averaged position and momentum of a point-like atom interacting with the quantized field in a standing-wave cavity. They constitute, in general, an infinite-dimensional set of equations with an infinite number of integrals of motion which may be reduced to a dynamical system with four degrees of freedom if the quantized field is supposed to be initially prepared in a Fock state. This system is found to produce semiquantum chaos with positive values of the maximal Lyapunov exponent. At exact resonance, the semiquantum dynamics is regular. At large values of detuning | δ|≫1, the Rabi atomic oscillations are usually shallow, and the dynamics is found to be almost regular. The Doppler–Rabi resonance, deep Rabi oscillations that may occur at any large value of | δ| to be equal to | αp 0|, is found numerically and described analytically (with α to be the normalized recoil frequency and p 0 the initial atomic momentum). Two gedanken experiments are proposed to detect manifestations of semiquantum chaos in real experiments. It is shown that in the chaotic regime values of the population inversion z out, measured with atoms after transversing a cavity, are so sensitive to small changes in the initial inversion z in that the probability of detecting any value of z out in the admissible interval [−1,1] becomes almost unity in a short time. Chaotic wandering of a two-level atom in a quantized Fock field is shown to be fractal. Fractal-like structures, typical with chaotic scattering, are numerically found in the dependence of the time of exit of atoms from the cavity on their initial momenta.
