Parametric Resonance in Bose-Einstein Condensates

William B. Cairncross, Axel Pelster

We demonstrate parametric resonance in Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) with attractive two-body interaction in a harmonic trap under parametric excitation by periodic modulation of the s-wave scattering length. We obtain nonlinear equations of motion for the widths of the condensate using a Gaussian variational ansatz for the Gross-Pitaevskii condensate wave function. We conduct both linear and nonlinear stability analyses for the equations of motion and find qualitative agreement, thus concluding that the stability of two equilibrium widths of a BEC might be inverted by parametric excitation.

Faraday patterns generated by Rabi oscillation in a binary Bose-Einstein condensate

Terun Chen, Kosuke Shibata, Yujiro Eto +2 more

The interaction between atoms in a two-component Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) is effectively modulated by the Rabi oscillation. This periodic modulation of the effective interaction is shown to generate Faraday patterns through parametric resonance. We show that there are multiple resonances arising from the density and spin waves in a two-component BEC and investigate the interplay between the Faraday-pattern formation and the phase separation.

Nonlinear mode coupling and resonant excitations in two-component Bose-Einstein condensates

Ju-Kui Xue, Guan-Qiang Li, Ai‐Xia Zhang +1 more

Nonlinear excitations in two-component Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) described by two coupled Gross-Pitaevskii equations are investigated analytically and numerically. The beating phenomenon, the higher-harmonic generation, and the mixing of the excited modes are revealed by both variational approximation and numerical method. The strong excitations induced by the parametric resonance are also studied by time-periodic modulation for the intercomponent interaction. The resonance conditions in terms of the modulation frequency and the strength of intercomponent interaction are obtained analytically, which are confirmed by numerical method. Direct numerical simulations show that, when the resonance takes place, periodic phase separation and multisoliton configurations (including soliton trains, soliton pairs, and multidomain walls) can be excited. In particular, we demonstrate a method for formation of multisoliton configurations through parametric resonance in two-component BECs.
