Abstract

We investigate long-range effects of the dipolar interaction in Bose-Einstein condensates by solving the time-dependent 3D Gross-Pitaevskii equation. We study the propagation of excitations between non-overlapping condensates when a collective mode is excited in one of the condensates. We obtain the frequency shifts due to the long-range character of the dipolar coupling for the bilayer and also the trilayer system when the dipolar mode is excited in one condensate. The propagation of the monopolar and quadrupolar modes are also investigated. The coupled-pendulum model is proposed to qualitatively explain the long range effects of the dipolar coupling.

Nonlinear Dynamics of Bose-Einstein Condensates with Long-Range Interactions

G. Wunner, Holger Cartarius, Tomaž Fabčič +3 more

Abstract. The motto of this paper is: Let's face Bose-Einstein condensation through nonUnear dynamics. We do this by choosing variational forms of the condensate wave functions (of given symmetry classes), which convert the Bose-Einstein condensates via the time-dependent Gross-Pitaevskii equation into Hamiltonian systems that can be studied using the methods of nonUnear dynamics. We consider in particular cold quantum gases where long-range interactions between the neutral atoms are present, in addition to the conventional short-range contact interaction, viz. gravity-Uke interactions, and dipole-dipole interactions. The residts obtained serve as a useful giude in the search for nonlinear dynamics effects in numerically exact quantum calcinations for Bose-Einstein condensates. A main residt is the prediction of the existence of stable islands as well as chaotic regions for excited states of dipolar condensates, which coidd be checked experimentally. Keywords: Bose-Einstein condensation, Gross-Pitaevskii equation, nonlinear dynamics effects PACS: 03.75.Kk, 34.20.Cf, 02.30.-f, 47.20.Ky 1.

Variational methods with coupled Gaussian functions for Bose-Einstein condensates with long-range interactions. I. General concept

Stefan Rau, Jörg Main, Günter Wunner

The variational method of coupled Gaussian functions is applied to Bose-Einstein condensates with long-range interactions. The time dependence of the condensate is described by dynamical equations for the variational parameters. We present the method and analytically derive the dynamical equations from the time-dependent Gross-Pitaevskii equation. The stability of the solutions is investigated using methods of nonlinear dynamics. The concept presented in this article will be applied to Bose-Einstein condensates with monopolar $1/r$ and dipolar $1/{r}^{3}$ interaction in the subsequent article [S. Rau et al., Phys. Rev. A 82, 023611 (2010)], where we will present a wealth of phenomena obtained using the ansatz with coupled Gaussian functions.

Collective excitation of Bose-Einstein condensates in the transition region between three and one dimensions

M. Kottke, T. Schulte, L. Cacciapuoti +4 more

We measure the frequency of the low $m=0$ quadrupolar excitation mode of weakly interacting Bose-Einstein condensates in the transition region from the three-dimensional (3D) to the 1D mean-field regime. Various effects shifting the frequency of the mode are discussed. In particular we take the dynamic coupling of the condensate with the thermal component at finite temperature into account using a time-dependent Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov treatment developed by Giorgini [Phys. Rev. A, 61, 063615 (2000)]. We show that the frequency rises in the transition from 3D to 1D, in good agreement with the theoretical prediction of Menotti and Stringari [Phys. Rev. A 66, 043610 (2002)].

Center motions of nonoverlapping condensates coupled by long-range dipolar interaction in bilayer and multilayer stacks

Chao-Chun Huang, Wen-Chin Wu

We investigate the effect of anisotropic and long-range dipole-dipole interaction (DDI) on the center motions of nonoverlapping Bose-Einstein condensates in bilayer and multilayer stacks. In the bilayer, it is shown analytically that while DDI plays no role in the in-phase modes of center motions of condensates, out-of-phase mode frequency (${\ensuremath{\omega}}_{o}$) depends crucially on the strength of DDI (${a}_{d}$). At the small-${a}_{d}$ limit, ${\ensuremath{\omega}}_{o}^{2}({a}_{d})\ensuremath{-}{\ensuremath{\omega}}_{o}^{2}(0)\ensuremath{\propto}{a}_{d}$. In the multilayer stack, transverse modes associated with center motions of coupled condensates are found to be optical-phonon-like. At the long-wavelength limit, phonon velocity is proportional to $\sqrt{a}{}_{d}$.

Collective Excitations of a Dipolar Bose—Einstein Condensate in an Anharmonic Trap

Wei Qi, Zhaoxin Liang, Zhang Zhi-dong

The collective excitations of a one-dimensional dipolar Bose—Einstein condensate trapped in an anharmonic potential are investigated theoretically. Using the variational approach, we obtain the coupled equations of motion for the center-of-mass coordinate of the condensate and its width. In particular, analytical expressions for the low-lying excitation modes are given. The results show that dipole-dipole interactions reduce the frequency shift induced by quartic distortion. The interplay between dipole-dipole interactions and anharmonic distortion for the collapse and revival of the collective excitations originating from the nonlinear coupling between the two modes are also discussed.

Collective Excitations of a Dipolar Bose-Einstein Condensate

G. Bismut, Benjamin Pasquiou, É. Maréchal +4 more

We have measured the effect of dipole-dipole interactions on the frequency of a collective mode of a Bose-Einstein condensate. At relatively large numbers of atoms, the experimental measurements are in good agreement with zero temperature theoretical predictions based on the Thomas-Fermi approach. Experimental results obtained for the dipolar shift of a collective mode show a larger dependency to both the trap geometry and the atom number than the ones obtained when measuring the modification of the condensate aspect ratio due to dipolar forces. These findings are in good agreement with simulations based on a Gaussian ansatz.
