Published Dec 3, 2013• 1 citation

Abstract

In this paper, we study on dark solitons of Bose–Einstein condensate analytically in a time-dependent harmonic trap with an arbitrary time-dependent linear potential and complex potential. It is shown that the nonautonomous dark soliton can be manipulated well through managing external potentials and nonlinear interaction between atoms. We believe that these results would stimulate experiments to manage dark solitons.

Nonautonomous dark soliton solutions in two-component Bose-Einstein condensates with a linear time-dependent potential

李秋艳, 王双进, 李再东

We report the analytical nonautonomous soliton solutions(NSSs) for two-component Bose–Einstein condensates with the presence of a time-dependent potential. These solutions show that the time-dependent potential can affect the velocity of NSS. The velocity shows the characteristic of both increasing and oscillation with time. A detailed analysis for the asymptotic behavior of NSSs demonstrates that the collision of two NSSs of each component is elastic.

Dynamics of Bright/Dark Solitons in Bose–Einstein Condensates with Time-Dependent Scattering Length and External Potential

Ai‐Xia Zhang, Xue Ju-Kui

We present an analytical study on the dynamics of bright and dark solitons in Bose–Einstein condensates with time-varying atomic scattering length in a time-varying external parabolic potential. A set of exact soliton solutions of the one-dimensional Gross–Pitaevskii equation are obtained, including fundamental bright solitons, higher-order bright solitons, and dark solitons. The results show that the soliton's parameters (amplitude, width, and period) can be changed in a controllable manner by changing the scattering length and external potential. This may be helpful to design experiments.

Soliton Solutions in Bose–Einstein Condensates with Time-Dependent Atomic Scattering Length in an Expulsive Parabolic Potential

Zhang Jie-Fang, Yang Qin

We present both the bright and dark solitons of Bose–Einstein condensates with a time-dependent atomic scattering length in an expulsive parabolic potential. As a discussed example, we select the experimental parameter, i.e. the Feshbach-managed nonlinear coefficient reading a ( t ) = g 0 exp(λ t ), and obtain the results which can be recovered in the literature [Phys. Rev. Lett. 94 (2005) 050402].

Matter-Wave Solitons in Two-Component Bose—Einstein Condensates with Tunable Interactions and Time Varying Potential

Hengnong Xuan, Miao Zuo

We present three families of exact matter-wave soliton solutions for an effective one-dimension two-component Bose—Einstein condensates (BECs) with tunable interactions, harmonic potential and gain or loss term. We investigate the dynamics of bright-bright solitons, bright-dark solitons and dark-dark solitons for the time-dependent expulsive harmonic trap potential, periodically modulated harmonic trap potential, and kinklike modulated harmonic trap potential. Through the Feshbach resonance, these dynamics can be realized in experiments by suitable control of time-dependent trap parameters, atomic interactions, and interaction with thermal cloud.
