Abstract

We consider a two-component Bose-Einstein condensate in a ring trap in a rotating frame and show how to determine the response of such a configuration to being in a rotating frame via accumulation of a Sagnac phase. This may be accomplished through either population oscillations or the motion of spatial-density fringes. We explicitly include the effect of interactions via a mean-field description and study the fidelity of the dynamics relative to an ideal configuration.

Stationary States and Modulational Instability of Coupled Two-Component Bose–Einstein Condensates in a Ring Trap

邓海明, 钟宏华, 黄嘉豪 +3 more

We investigate modulational instability(MI) of a coupled two-component Bose–Einstein condensates in a rotating ring trap. The excitation spectrum and the MI condition of the system are presented analytically. We find that the coupling between the two components strongly modifies the MI condition, and the MI condition is phase-dependent.Furthermore, we discuss the effect of MI on both density excitation and spin excitation. If the inter- and intra-component interaction strengths are all equal, the MI causes density excitation but not spin excitation, and if the inter- and intracomponent interaction strengths are different, the MI causes both density excitation and spin excitation. Our results provide a promising approach for controlling the stability and excitation of a rotating two-component Bose–Einstein condensates by modulating its coupling strength and interaction strength.

Stability and dynamics of a two-component Bose-Einstein condensate in ring ladders

Eulàlia Nicolau Jiménez

We investigate the dynamics of a two-component Bose-Einstein condensate trapped in two coupled rings in ladder configuration. First, we derive from the two-component Gross-Pitaevskii equation a few state model for the angular momentum modes. Then, we analyse the stability of the stationary states by solving the Bogoliubov-de Gennes equations. Also, we study the dynamics of the system for an arbitrary population imbalance between the rings, characterizing the transition from Josephson oscillations to quantum self-trapping. We also derive the self-trapping condition for the bosonic mixture, finding simultaneous self-trapping of the two components.

Orbital angular momentum dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensates trapped in two stacked rings

Eulàlia Nicolau, J. Mompart, Bruno Juliá-Díaz +1 more

We investigate the stability and dynamics of the orbital angular momentum modes of a repulsive Bose-Einstein condensate trapped in two tunnel-coupled rings in a stack configuration. Within mean-field theory, we derive a two-state model for the system in the case in which we populate both rings equally with a single orbital angular momentum mode and include small perturbations in other modes. Analyzing the fixed-point solutions of the model and the associated classical Hamiltonian, we characterize the destabilization of the stationary states and the subsequent dynamics. By populating a single orbital angular momentum mode with an arbitrary population imbalance between the rings, we derive analytically the boundary between the regimes of Josephson oscillations and macroscopic quantum self-trapping and study numerically the stability of these solutions.

Dynamics of two-component Bose-Einstein condensates in rotating traps

I. Corro, R. G. Scott, A. Martin

The dynamics of two-component Bose-Einstein condensates in rotating traps is investigated. In the Thomas-Fermi limit, equations of motion are derived showing multiple static solutions for a vortex-free condensate. Dynamic stability analysis of these solutions and comparison to truncated Wigner simulations enable us to identify the regimes for which vortex states will occur. In addition, our analysis predicts center-of-mass oscillations that are induced by interspecies interactions and affect each component separately. For attractive interspecies interactions, these oscillations lead to a stable symmetry-broken state.

Dynamics of spin–orbital-angular-momentum coupled Bose–Einstein condensates on a ring

Lin 林 Wen 文, Yihan Huang, Lei Zhao +2 more

Abstract We investigate the dynamics of a two-component Bose–Einstein condensate subject to spin–orbital-angular-momentum coupling and confined to a ring, via the variational approach. Adopting a single-mode approximation by assuming that the BEC carries a single angular momentum for SU(2)-symmetric spin interactions, the equations of motion for the variational parameters are derived. The phase diagram of the ground state in the plane of the Raman coupling and detuning contains three different phases which meet at a tricritical point, and the exact phase boundaries between the three phases are determined. Linear stability analysis shows that the stationary state is dynamically stable, and there exists an oscillation eigenmode with frequency determined by detuning, angular momentum, and Raman coupling. The time-evolution results indicate that the spin vector undergoes periodic rotation along a closed orbit on the Bloch sphere, which can be interpreted as a precession of the collective spin around an effective field determined by the Raman coupling strength, the detuning, and the angular momentum.
