Abstract

We theoretically investigate collective modes of a one-dimensional (1D) interacting Bose gas in a harmonic tras at finite temperatures, by using a variational approach and the local density approximation. We find that the temperature dependence of collective mode frequencies is notably different in the weakly and strongly interacting regimes. Therefore, the experimental measurement of collective modes could provide a sensitive probe for different quantum phases of a 1D trapped Bose gas, realized by tuning the interatomic interaction strength and temperature. Our prediction on the temperature dependence of the breathing mode frequency is in good qualitative agreement with an earlier experimental measurement for a weakly interacting 1D Bose gas of rubidium-87 atoms in harmonic traps [Moritz et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 91, 250402 (2003)].

Collective modes of a harmonically trapped one-dimensional Bose gas: The effects of finite particle number and nonzero temperature

Xiao-Long Chen, Yun Li, Hui Hu

Following the idea of the density-functional approach, we develop a generalized Bogoliubov theory of an interacting Bose gas confined in a one-dimensional harmonic trap by using a local chemical potential, calculated with the Lieb-Liniger exact solution, as the exchange energy. At zero temperature, we use the theory to describe collective modes of a finite-particle system in all interaction regimes from the ideal gas limit to the mean-field Thomas-Fermi regime and to the strongly interacting Tonks-Girardeau regime. At finite temperature, we investigate the temperature dependence of collective modes in the weak-coupling regime by means of a Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov theory with Popov approximation. By emphasizing the effects of finite particle number and nonzero temperature on collective-mode frequencies, we compare our results with a recent experimental measurement [E. Haller et al., Science 325, 1224 (2009)] and some previous theoretical predictions. We show that the experimental data are still not fully explained within current theoretical framework.

Collective modes of a one-dimensional trapped Bose gas in the presence of the anomalous density

Abdelâali Boudjemâa

We study the collective modes of a one-dimensional harmonically trapped Bose-Einstein condensate in the presence of the anomalous density using the time-dependent Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov theory. Within the hydrodynamic equations, we derive analytical expressions for the mode frequencies and the density fluctuations of the anomalous density which constitutes the minority component at very low temperature and feels an effective external potential exerted by the majority component, i.e., the condensate. On the other hand, we numerically examine the temperature dependence of the breathing mode oscillations of the condensate at finite temperature in the weak-coupling regime. At zero temperature, we compare our predictions with available experimental data, theoretical treatments, and Monte carlo simulations in all interaction regimes and the remaining hindrances are emphasized. We show that the anomalous correlations have a non-negligible role on the collective modes at both zero and finite temperatures.

Collective modes of a two-dimensional Fermi gas at finite temperature

Brendan C. Mulkerin, Xia-Ji Liu, Hui Hu

We examine the breathing mode of a strongly interacting two-dimensional Fermi gas and the role of temperature on the anomalous breaking of scale invariance. By calculating the equation of state with different many-body $T$-matrix theories and the virial expansion, we obtain a hydrodynamic equation of the harmonically trapped Fermi gas (with trapping frequency ${\ensuremath{\omega}}_{0}$) through the local density approximation. By solving the hydrodynamic equations, we determine the breathing mode frequencies as a function of interaction strength and temperature. We find that the breathing mode anomaly depends sensitively on both interaction strength and temperature. In particular, in the strongly interacting regime, we predict a significant downshift of the breathing mode frequency, below the scale invariant value of $2{\ensuremath{\omega}}_{0}$, for temperatures of the order of the Fermi temperature.

Collective modes of a one-dimensional trapped Bose gas in the presence of the pairing state

Abdelâali Boudjemâa

We study the collective modes and density fluctuations of a one-dimensional (1D) harmonically trapped Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) in the presence of the pairing state using the time-dependent-Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (TDHFB) theory within the hydrodynamic equations. We derive analytical expressions for the mode frequencies and the density fluctuations of the pairing state which constitutes the minority component at low temperature and feels an effective external potential exerted by the majority component i.e. the condensate. Our predictions on the breathing mode oscillations of the condensate are in good agreement with the data of recent experiments and Monte carlo simulations.

Hydrodynamic versus collisionless dynamics of a one-dimensional harmonically trapped Bose gas

Giulia De Rosi, S. Stringari

By using a sum-rule approach we investigate the transition between the hydrodynamic and the collisionless regime of the collective modes in a one-dimensional (1D) harmonically trapped Bose gas. Both the weakly interacting gas and the Tonks-Girardeau limits are considered. We predict that the excitation of the dipole compression mode is characterized in the high-temperature collisionless regime by a beating signal of two different frequencies (${\ensuremath{\omega}}_{z}$ and $3{\ensuremath{\omega}}_{z}$), while in the high-temperature collisional regime, the excitation consists of a single frequency ($\sqrt{7}{\ensuremath{\omega}}_{z}$). This behavior differs from the case of the lowest breathing mode whose excitation consists of a single frequency ($2{\ensuremath{\omega}}_{z}$) in both regimes. Our predictions for the dipole compression mode open promising perspectives for the experimental investigation of collisional effects in 1D configurations.

Collective oscillations of a trapped atomic gas in low dimensions and thermodynamics of one-dimensional Bose gas

Giulia De Rosi

Ultracold atoms are exceptional tools to explore the physics of quantum matter. In fact, the high degree of tunability of ultracold Bose and Fermi gases makes them ideal systems for quantum simulation and for investigating macroscopic manifestations of quantum effects, such as superfluidity. In ultracold gas research, a central role is played by collective oscillations. They can be used to study different dynamical regimes, such as superfluid, collisional, or collisionless limits or to test the equation of state of the system. In this thesis, we present a unified description of collective oscillations in low dimensions covering both Bose and Fermi statistics, different trap geometries and zero as well as finite temperature, based on the formalism of hydrodynamics and sum rules. We discuss the different behaviour exhibited by the second excited breathing mode in the collisional regime at low temperature and in the collisionless limit at high temperature in a 1D trapped Bose gas with repulsive contact interaction. We show how this mode exhibits a single-valued excitation spectrum in the collisional regime and two different frequencies in the collisionless limit. Our predictions could be important for future research related to the thermalization and damping phenomena in this low-dimensional system. We show that 1D uniform Bose gases exhibit a non-monotonic temperature dependence of the chemical potential characterized by an increasing-with-temperature behaviour at low temperature. This is due to the thermal excitation of phonons and reveals an interesting analogy with the behaviour of superfluids. Finally, we investigate a gas with a finite number N of atoms in a ring geometry at T = 0. We discuss explicitly the deviations of the thermodynamic behaviour in the ring from the one in the large N limit.
