Abstract

We study the properties of a Bose-Einstein-condensate (BEC)--impurity mixture at finite temperature employing the time-dependent Hartree-Fock Bogoliubov (TDHFB) theory which is a set of coupled nonlinear equations of motion for the condensate and its normal and anomalous fluctuations on the one hand and for impurity on the other. The numerical solutions of these equations in the static quasi-one-dimensional regime show that the thermal cloud and the anomalous density are deformed as happens to the condensate and the impurity becomes less localized at nonzero temperatures. Effects of the BEC fluctuations on the self-trapping state are studied in homogeneous weakly interacting BEC-impurity at low temperature. The self-trapping threshold is also determined in such a system. The formation of solitons in the BEC-impurity mixture at finite temperature is investigated.

Self-consistent theory of a Bose–Einstein condensate with impurity at finite temperature

Abdelâali Boudjemâa

We study the properties of Bose–Einstein condensate–impurity mixtures at finite temperatures employing the Balian–Vénéroni variational principle. The method leads to a set of coupled nonlinear equations of motion for the condensate and its normal and anomalous fluctuations on the one hand, and for the impurity on the other. We show that the obtained equations satisfy the energy and number conserving laws. Useful analytic expressions for the chemical potential and the radius of both the condensate and anomalous components are derived in the framework of the Thomas–Fermi approximation in a d -dimensional regime. The effects of the impurity on these quantities are discussed.

Quantum and thermal fluctuations in two-component Bose gases

Abdelâali Boudjemâa

We study the effects of quantum and thermal fluctuations on Bose-Bose mixtures at finite temperature employing the time-dependent Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (TDHFB) theory. The theory governs self-consistently the motion of the condensates, the noncondensates, and of the anomalous components on an equal footing. The finite temperature criterion for the phase separation is established. We numerically analyze the temperature dependence of different densities for both miscible and immiscible mixtures. We show that the degree of the overlap between the two condensates and the thermal clouds is lowered and the relative motion of the centers of mass of the condensed and thermal components is strongly damped due to the presence of the pair anomalous fluctuations. Our results are compared with previous theoretical and experimental findings. On the other hand, starting from our TDHFB equations, we develop a random-phase theory for the elementary excitations in a homogeneous mixture. We find that the normal and anomalous fluctuations may lead to enhance the excitations and the thermodynamics of the system.

Soliton Molecules in the Impurity Component of Self-Trapping Bosonic Impurity

Abdelâali Boudjemâa, Khelifa Mohammed Elhadj

We investigate the dynamics of soliton molecules in the impurity component of a trapped Bose-Einstein condensate-impurity mixture (polaronic soliton molecules) using the time dependent Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov equations in a quasi one-dimensional geometry. We show that the impurity component which obeys the self-focussing nonlinear Schrodinger equation, supports bright soliton molecules even for repulsive interspecies interactions. The binding energy, the width, the equilibrium state and the evolution of such solitons are deeply analyzed within variational and numerical means. We find that our variational and numerical calculations well coincide with each other.

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 and generation of a new vortex in a trapped Bose gas at finite temperature

Abdelâali Boudjemâa

The dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) is studied at nonzero temperatures using our variational time-dependent-Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov formalism. We have shown that this approach is an efficient tool to study the expansion and collective excitations of the condensate, the thermal cloud, and the anomalous correlation function at nonzero temperatures. We have found that the condensate and the anomalous density have the same breathing oscillations. We have investigated, on the other hand, the behavior of a single quantized vortex in a harmonically trapped BEC at nonzero temperatures. Generalized expressions for vortex excitations, vortex core size, and Kelvin modes have been derived. An important and somehow surprising result is that the numerical solution of our equations predicts that the vortex core is partially filled by the thermal atoms at nonzero temperatures. We have shown that the effect of thermal fluctuations is important and it may lead to enhancing the size of the vortex core. The behavior of the singly anomalous vortex has also been studied at nonzero temperatures.

Many-body and temperature effects in two-dimensional quantum droplets in Bose–Bose mixtures

Abdelâali Boudjemâa

We study the equilibrium properties of self-bound droplets in two-dimensional Bose mixtures employing the time-dependent Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov theory. This theory allows one to understand both the many-body and temperature effects beyond the Lee-Huang-Yang description. We calculate higher-order corrections to the excitations, the sound velocity, and the energy of the droplet. Our results for the ground-state energy are compared with the diffusion Monte Carlo data and good agreement is found. The behavior of the depletion and anomalous density of the droplet is also discussed. At finite temperature, we show that the droplet emerges at temperatures well below the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless transition temperature. The critical temperature strongly depends on the interspecies interactions. Our study is extended to the finite size droplet by numerically solving the generalized finite-temperature Gross-Pitaevskii equation which is obtained self-consistently from our formalism in the framework of the local density approximation.
