title: Creating massive entanglement of Bose-Einstein condensed atoms.
abstract: We propose a direct, coherent coupling scheme that can create massively entangled states of Bose-Einstein condensed atoms. Our idea is based on an effective interaction between two atoms from coherent Raman processes through a (two atom) molecular intermediate state. We compare our scheme with other recent proposals for the generation of massive entanglement of Bose condensed atoms.
