Phase separation of two-component Bose–Einstein condensates with monopolar interaction

Long Zhu, Jinbin Li

Published Aug 20, 2017• 3 citations
Publisher

Abstract

This paper analyzes the properties of the two-component Bose–Einstein condensates (BECs) with long-range monopolar interaction by means of Thomas–Fermi approximation (TFA). The effects of long-range monopolar interaction, inter-component short-range s-wave scattering, and particle numbers on the density profiles and phase separation of BECs are investigated. It is shown that atoms with the small intra-component s-wave scattering length are squeezed out when the monopolar interaction of these atoms is not large enough, and the density profile will be compressed when corresponding monopolar interaction is increased. Effective zero interaction point that the s-wave scattering repulsive interaction is neutralized by monopolar attractive interaction, is found. Varying of particle numbers will cause the transformation between phase separation and faint phase separation (or mixture).

Anisotropic properties of phase separation in two-component dipolar Bose–Einstein condensates

Wei Wang, Jinbin Li

Using Crank–Nicolson method, we calculate ground state wave functions of two-component dipolar Bose–Einstein condensates (BECs) and show that, due to dipole–dipole interaction (DDI), the condensate mixture displays anisotropic phase separation. The effects of DDI, inter-component s-wave scattering, strength of trap potential and particle numbers on the density profiles are investigated. Three types of two-component profiles are present, first cigar, along z-axis and concentric torus, second pancake (or blood cell), in xy-plane, and two non-uniform ellipsoid, separated by the pancake and third two dumbbell shapes.

Finite-temperature properties of binary mixtures of two Bose-Einstein condensates

Kwangsik T. Nho, David Paul Landau

This work reports studies of a mixture of two interacting Bose condensates in a quasi-one-dimensional geometry using a finite-temperature path-integral Monte Carlo method. For weakly interacting dilute gases, the interactions between atoms are modeled by a hard-sphere potential whose core radius equals its corresponding scattering length. The effect of both the temperature and the interspecies interaction on the static properties, such as the density profile and the superfluid fraction, is discussed. Our results show that for repulsive intra- and interspecies interactions, the presence of the interspecies interactions dramatically changes the structure of both the density profile and the superfluid fraction, and two species are seen to partially separate in space, and there is a finite-size effect on the phase separation between two partially separating Bose-Einstein condensates. In general, our results agree with the theoretical predictions and experimental observations.

Phase separation of two-component Bose–Einstein condensates

Zuhan Liu

Recently, coupled systems of nonlinear Schrödinger equations have been used extensively to describe mixtures Bose–Einstein condensates. In this paper, we study the distribution of two different hyperfine spin states of a binary mixture of three dimensional Bose–Einstein condensates. In a double condensate, an interface may occur due to large intraspecies and interspecies scattering lengths. We prove that there is an asymptotic separation of different phases in the strong coupling (Thomas–Fermi) limit.

Structure and stability of trapped atomic boson-fermion mixtures

Robert Roth

The structure of trapped binary mixtures of bosonic and fermionic atoms at zero temperature is studied using a modified Gross-Pitaevskii equation for the bosons which self-consistently includes the mean-field interaction generated by the fermionic cloud. The density of the fermionic component is described within the Thomas-Fermi approximation. The influence of the boson-boson and the boson-fermion s-wave interaction on the density profiles and the stability of the mixture is investigated systematically. Critical particle numbers for the mean-field collapse caused either by attractive boson-boson or by attractive boson-fermion interactions and for the onset of spatial component separation are discussed. It is shown that the interplay between the boson-boson and the boson-fermion interaction generates a rich and complex phase diagram. Finally, the specific properties and prospects of the boson-fermion mixtures available in present experiments are addressed.

Bose-Einstein condensate immersed in a Fermi sea: Theory of static and dynamic behavior across phase separation

Bo Huang

We theoretically study the static and dynamic behavior of a BEC immersed in a large Fermi sea of ultracold atoms under conditions of tunable interspecies interaction. The degenerate Bose-Fermi mixture is kept in an elongated trap, typical for a single-beam optical dipole trap. We focus on the case of repulsive Bose-Fermi interaction and develop mean-field models to simulate the system over a wide range of repulsion strength. We further get analytical solutions in the regimes of phase separation and weak interaction. We obtain static density profiles and the frequency of the radial breathing mode, which is an elementary dynamic phenomenon of the mixture. Our results unveil the structure of the Bose-Fermi interface and describe the origin of the frequency shift of the breathing mode when the components become phase-separated at strong repulsion. We show that the mediated interaction between bosons induced by the Fermi sea can be understood as an adiabatic second-order mean-field effect, which is valid also beyond the weak-interaction regime for relevant experimental conditions. These results are consistent with our recent observations [Lous et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 120, 243403 (2018); Huang et al., Phys. Rev. A 99, 041602(R) (2019)] in a mixture of $^{41}\mathrm{K}$ and $^{6}\mathrm{Li}$.

S-wave Scattering Length from Effective Positronium-Positronium Interaction for Bose-Einstein Condensates

Kin-ya Oda, Miyakawa, T., Hiroyuki Yabu +1 more

The s-wave scattering length for the Positronium-Positronium interaction is estimated semi-phenomenologically with the long-range van der Waals force and the short-range repulsive potential that represents the hard core between two positronium. The obtained value of the scattering length is $a \sim 0.44{\rm nm}$, and its stability is also checked for different parametrizations. Using this value, the Gross-Pitaevskii equation can be fixed for the Positronium Bose-Einstein condensates (Ps BEC). The static properties of Ps BEC are studied from the solutions of that equation. The phase-transition temperature shift of the Ps BEC due to the Ps-Ps interaction is also evaluated with the mean-field approximation.
