Abstract

The dynamic of nonlinear solitary waves is studied with the Gross-Pitaevskii equation and Split-step Fourier method. The bright solitons stability in a harmonic oscillator potential for a 85Rb cigar-shape condensate under: 𝑎 = 1.63, Ω = 0.1, is analyzed.

The Dynamics of a Bright—Bright Vector Soliton in Bose—Einstein Condensation

Yan Jia-Ren, Jie Zhou, Ao Sheng-Mei

The dynamics of a bright—bright vector soliton in cigar-shaped Bose—Einstein condensate trapping in a harmonic potential is studied. The interaction between bright solitons in different species with small separation is derived. Unlike the interaction between solitons of the same species, it is independent of the phase difference between the solitons, and may be of attraction or repulsion. In the former case, each soliton will oscillate about and pass through each other around the mass center of the system, which will also oscillate harmonically due to harmonic trapping potential.

Dynamics of bright matter-wave solitons in a Bose–Einstein condensate with inhomogeneous scattering length

F. Kh. Abdullaev, A. Gammal, Lauro Tomio

We investigate dynamical effects of a bright soliton in Bose–Einstein condensed (BEC) systems with local and smooth space variations of the two-body atomic scattering length. It includes a discussion about the possible observation of a new type of standing nonlinear atomic matter wave in cigar-type traps. A rich dynamics is observed in the interaction between the soliton and an inhomogeneity. By considering an analytical time-dependent variational approach and also full numerical simulation of one-dimensional and three-dimensional Gross–Pitaevskii equations, we study processes such as trapping, reflection and transmission of the bright matter soliton due to the impurity. We also derive conditions for the collapse of the bright solitary wave, considering a quasi-one-dimensional BEC with attractive local inhomogeneity.

Modulational instability and bright solitary wave solution for Bose–Einstein condensates with time-dependent scattering length and harmonic potential

Lei Wu, Jie-Fang Zhang, Lu Li

We consider the one-dimensional Gross–Pitaevskii (GP) equation, which governs the dynamics of Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) matter waves with time-dependent scattering length and a harmonic trapping potential. We present the integrable condition for the one-dimensional GP equation and obtain the exact analytical solution which describes the modulational instability and the propagation of a bright solitary wave on a continuous wave (cw) background. Moreover, by employing the adiabatic perturbation theory for a bright soliton, we obtain approximative bright solitary wave solutions under near-integrable conditions. Both the exact and approximative solutions show that the amplitude of a bright solitary wave with zero boundary condition depends on the scattering length while its motion depends on the external trapping potential.

Stability of Bright Solitons in Bose-Einstein Condensate

Muhammad Irfan Qadir, Aleen Ijaz

We consider a system of effectively one dimensional cigar shaped Bose Einstein condensate. We present a numerical study for the existence and stability of travelling bright solitons in the time dependent nonlinear Schrodinger equation that describes the dynamics of Bose-Einstein ¨ condensate. Furthermore, the effects of strength of the trap on the stability of bright solitons are investigated when the condensate is placed under the influence of a trapping potential.
