Abstract

We investigate controlled phase separation of a binary Bose-Einstein condensate in the proximity of a mixed-spin-channel Feshbach resonance in the $|F=1,{m}_{F}=+1\ensuremath{\rangle}$ and $|F=2,{m}_{F}=\ensuremath{-}1\ensuremath{\rangle}$ states of $^{87}\mathrm{Rb}$ at a magnetic field of 9.10 G. Phase separation occurs on the lower-magnetic-field side of the Feshbach resonance while the two components overlap on the higher-magnetic-field side. The Feshbach resonance curve of the scattering length is obtained from the shape of the atomic cloud by comparison with the numerical analysis of coupled Gross-Pitaevskii equations.

Tunable Miscibility in a Dual-Species Bose-Einstein Condensate

Scott B. Papp, J. M. Pino, Carl Wieman

We report on the observation of controllable phase separation in a dual-species Bose-Einstein condensate with 85Rb and 87Rb. Interatomic interactions between the different components determine the miscibility of the two quantum fluids. In our experiments, we can clearly observe immiscible behavior via a dramatic spatial separation of the two species. Furthermore, a magnetic-field Feshbach resonance is used to change them between miscible and immiscible by tuning the 85Rb scattering length. The spatial density pattern of the immiscible quantum fluids exhibits complex alternating-domain structures that are uncharacteristic of its stationary ground state.

Phase separation of Bose-Einstein condensates of trapped atoms and molecules with a homonuclear Feshbach resonance

Ryosuke Shibato, Takushi Nishimura, Takayuki Watanabe +1 more

We investigate phase separation of Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) of two-component atoms and one-component molecules with a homonuclear Feshbach resonance. We develop a full model for dilute atomic and molecular gases including correlation of the Feshbach resonance and all kinds of interparticle interactions, and numerically calculate order parameters of the BECs in spherical harmonic oscillator traps at zero temperature with the Bogoliubov's classical field approximation. As a result, we find out that the Feshbach resonance can induce two types of phase separation. The actual phase structures and density profiles of the trapped gases are predicted in the whole parameter region, from the atom-dominant regime to the molecule-dominant regime. We focus on the role of the molecules in the phase separation. Especially in the atom-dominant regime, the role of the molecules is described through effective interactions derived from our model. Furthermore we show that a perturbative and semiclassical limit of our model reproduces the conventional atomic BEC (single-channel) model.

Dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensates near Feshbach resonance in external potential

Xiao-Fei Zhang, Xinghua Hu, Deng‐Shan Wang +2 more

We review our recent theoretical advances in the dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensates with tunable interactions using Feshbach resonance and external potential. A set of analytic and numerical methods for Gross-Pitaevskii equations are developed to study the nonlinear dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensates. Analytically, we present the integrable conditions for the Gross-Pitaevskii equations with tunable interactions and external potential, and obtain a family of exact analytical solutions for one- and two-component Bose-Einstein condensates in one and two-dimensional cases. Then we apply these models to investigate the dynamics of solitons and collisions between two solitons. Numerically, the stability of the analytic exact solutions are checked and the phenomena, such as the dynamics and modulation of the ring dark soliton and vector-soliton, soliton conversion via Feshbach resonance, quantized soliton and vortex in quasi-two-dimensional are also investigated. Both the exact and numerical solutions show that the dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensates can be effectively controlled by the Feshbach resonance and external potential, which offer a good opportunity for manipulation of atomic matter waves and nonlinear excitations in Bose-Einstein condensates.

Phase separation in a two-species atomic Bose-Einstein condensate with an interspecies Feshbach resonance

Lu Zhou, Jing Qian, Han Pu +2 more

We consider a mixture of two-species atomic Bose-Einstein condensates coupled to a bound molecular state at zero temperature via an interspecies Feshbach resonance. The interspecies Feshbach coupling precludes the possibility of doubly mixed phases while enables not only the pure molecular superfluid but also the pure atomic superfluids to exist as distinct phases. We show that this system is able to support a rich set of phase separations, including that between two distinct mixed atom-molecule phases. We pay particular attention to the effects of the Feschbach coupling and the particle collisions on the miscibility of this multicomponent condensate system.

Phase separation and collapse in Bose-Fermi mixtures with a Feshbach resonance

Francesca Maria Marchetti, Charles Mathy, David A. Huse +1 more

We consider a mixture of single-component bosonic and fermionic atoms with an interspecies interaction that is varied using a Feshbach resonance. By performing a mean-field analysis of a two-channel model, which describes both narrow and broad Feshbach resonances, we find an unexpectedly rich phase diagram at zero temperature: Bose-condensed and non-Bose-condensed phases form a variety of phase-separated states that are accompanied by both critical and tricritical points. We discuss the implications of our results for the experimentally observed collapse of Bose-Fermi mixtures on the attractive side of the Feshbach resonance, and we make predictions for future experiments on Bose-Fermi mixtures close to a Feshbach resonance.

Prospects for Mixed-Isotope Bose-Einstein Condensates in Rubidium

James P. Burke, John L. Bohn, Brett D. Esry +1 more

We calculate binary collision parameters for mixtures of ultracold gases of ${}^{85}\mathrm{Rb}$ and ${}^{87}\mathrm{Rb}$ atoms. We predict a large positive triplet scattering length for mixed-isotope collisions, which implies that a stable mixed-isotope double condensate can be formed by sympathetic evaporative cooling. Moreover, collisions between ${}^{85}\mathrm{Rb}$ and ${}^{87}\mathrm{Rb}$ atoms in the lowest hyperfine manifold exhibit magnetic-field-induced Feshbach resonances which should allow partial control of the interaction between condensates. These considerations make Rb an ideal system for the study of interpenetrating bosonic superfluids.
