On the theory of the amplification of backwards matter waves in a Bose-Einstein condensate of dilute gas

Abstract

The solution of the Maxwell-Schrodinger equations describing amplification of backwards matter waves in the process of light scattering from a Bose-Einstein condensate of dilute gas is presented. The results obtained (without the mean field approximation) explain the main features of the effects observed in [1].

Maxwell-Schrödinger equations for a dilute gas Bose-Einstein condensate coupled to an electromagnetic field

Yu. A. Avetisyan, Evgenii Dmitrievich Trifonov

We give a general formulation of the semiclassical approach to solving the problem of interaction between a Bose-Einstein condensate of dilute gas and electromagnetic radiation without using the commonly applied mean-field approximation. We suggest variants of the systems of Maxwell-Schrödinger equations whose solution describes such effects as superradiant light scattering, light beam amplification, atomic wave (atomic laser) amplification, induced transparency, and reduction in the group velocity of light.

Amplification of light in a dilute-gas Bose-Einstein condensate

Evgenii Dmitrievich Trifonov, N. I. Shamrov

A semiclassical theory is proposed to describe the light amplification in a Bose—Einstein condensate of a dilute atomic gas observed in [1]. Atomic states with well-defined momenta are taken as a basis of wave functions to derive the Maxwell—Bloch equations for the model of a dilute gas of atoms interacting with electromagnetic field. The evolution of light intensity and populations of coherent atomic states with different recoil momenta is described by solving these equations. The solutions obtained are used to demonstrate theoretically the effects observed in [1].

On the theory of coherent effects caused by the interaction of a Bose-Einstein condensate of dilute gases with an electromagnetic field

Evgenii Dmitrievich Trifonov

The Schrödinger equation describing the interaction of a Bose-Einstein condensate of an ideal gas with an electromagnetic field is derived. Its solutions allow one to find the evolution of the radiation intensity and that of the populations of coherent atomic states with different recoil momenta and can be used for describing such effects as light scattering, light amplification, amplification of atomic beam intensity (an atomic laser), and induced transparency.
