Abstract

Experimental observation confirms the in-phase and out-of-phase eigenmodes description of the temperature dependence in the oscillations of an excited Bose-Einstein condensate, where a truly isotropic confining potential helps to observe the collapse and revival of the monopole mode of the finite-temperature gas.

Quantitative and Qualitative Analysis of Bose-Einstein Condensation in Harmonic Traps

Guangxi Hu, Ji-Ping Ye, Xianxi Dai +2 more

A simple and direct approach to handle summation is presented. With this approach, we analytically investigate Bose–Einstein condensation of ideal Bose gas trapped in an isotropic harmonic oscillator potential. We get the accurate expression of which is very close to (0.43% larger than) the experimental data. We find the curve of internal energy of the system vs. temperature has a turning point which marks the beginning of a condensation. We also find that there exists specific heat jump at the transition temperature, no matter whether the system is macroscopic or finite. This phenomenon could be a manifestation of a phase transition in finite systems.

Collisionless modes of a trapped Bose gas

M. Bijlsma, Henk T. C. Stoof

We calculate the excitation frequencies of low-lying modes of a trapped Bose-condensed gas at nonzero temperatures. In our calculation we include the dynamics of the noncondensed cloud, and find agreement with experimental results if we assume that in the experiment both the in-phase and out-of-phase monopole modes are excited simultaneously. In order to explore whether this is indeed the correct explanation, we also calculate how strongly the modes couple to a perturbation of the external trapping potential.

Undamped nonequilibrium dynamics of a nondegenerate Bose gas in a 3D isotropic trap

V. E. Colussi, Cameron Straatsma, Dana Z. Anderson +1 more

We investigate anomalous damping of the monopole mode of a non-degenerate 3D Bose gas under isotropic harmonic confinement as recently reported by the JILA TOP trap experiment (Lobser et al in preparation). Given a realistic confining potential, we develop a model for studying collective modes that includes the effects of anharmonic corrections to a harmonic potential. By studying the influence of these trap anharmonicities throughout a range of temperatures and collisional regimes, we find that the damping is caused by the joint mechanisms of dephasing and collisional relaxation. Furthermore, the model is complimented by Monte Carlo simulations which are in fair agreement with data from the JILA experiment.

Inhibition of Coherence in Trapped Bose-Einstein Condensates

Ataç İmamoğlu, Maciej Lewenstein, Li You

We analyze the dependence of the collapse and revival of many-atom coherence of a trapped Bose-Einstein condensate on the trap potential, dimensionality of the gas, and atom number fluctuations. We show that in a class of experimentally relevant systems the collapse time vanishes in the limit of a large number of atoms, implying that the trapped Bose gas cannot sustain a well-defined quantum phase.
