Abstract

We numerically investigate the breathing dynamics induced by collision between bright solitons in a binary dipolar Bose–Einstein condensates, whose dipole–dipole interaction and contact interaction are attractive. We identify three special breathing structures, such as snakelike special breathing structure, mixed breathing structure, and divide breathing structure. The characteristics of these breathing structures can be described by breathing frequency Ω, maximum breathing amplitude A and lifetime τ, which can be manipulated by atomic number Ni and interspecies scattering length a 12. Meanwhile, the above breathing structures can realize the process of quasi-transition with a reasonable Ni and a 12. Additionally, the collision of two special breathing structures also can bring more abundant breathing dynamics. Our results provide a reference for the study of soliton interactions and deepen the understanding of soliton properties in a binary dipolar Bose–Einstein condensates.

Breathing solitons induced by collision in dipolar Bose–Einstein condensates

Peng Gao, Xin Li, Zhan-Ying Yang +2 more

Abstract We numerically study the breathing dynamics induced by collision between bright solitons in one-dimensional Bose–Einstein condensates with strong dipole–dipole interaction. This breathing phenomenon is closely related to the after-collision short-lived attraction of solitons induced by the dipolar effect. The initial phase difference of solitons leads to the asymmetric dynamics after collision, which is manifested in their different breathing amplitude, breathing frequency, and atom number. We clarify that the asymmetry of breathing frequency is directly induced by the asymmetric atom number, rather than initial phase difference. Moreover, a collision between breathing solitons can produce new after-two-collision breathing solitons, whose breathing amplitude can be adjusted and reaches the maximum (or minimum) when the peak–peak (or dip–dip) collision happens.

Merging and splitting dynamics between two bright solitons in dipolar Bose–Einstein condensates*

Xin Li, Peng Gao, Zhan-Ying Yang +1 more

We numerically study the interaction dynamics of two bright solitons with zero initial velocities in the one-dimensional dipolar Bose–Einstein condensates. Under different dipolar strengths, the two bright solitons can merge into a breathing wave, and then split or propagate constantly after several oscillating periods. We quantitatively study the breathing frequency of wave after merging and the asymmetry property of solitons after splitting,and analyze their formation mechanism by the system’s energy evolution. Also, the change of initial phase difference brings distinct effects on the soliton interaction. Our results provide insight into the new dynamical phenomena in dipolar systems and enrich the understanding for interaction between dipolar solitons.

Dynamics of quasi-one-dimensional bright and vortex solitons of a dipolar Bose–Einstein condensate with repulsive atomic interaction

Luis E. Young-S., Paulsamy Muruganandam, Sadhan K. Adhikari

By numerical and variational analysis of the three-dimensional Gross–Pitaevskii equation, we study the formation and dynamics of bright and vortex-bright solitons in a cigar-shaped dipolar Bose–Einstein condensate for large repulsive atomic interactions. A phase diagram showing the region of stability of the solitons is obtained. We also study the dynamics of breathing oscillation of the solitons as well as the collision dynamics of two solitons. At large velocities the frontal collision is elastic and the two three-dimensional solitons pass through each other undeformed. Two solitons placed side by side at rest coalesce to form a stable bound soliton molecule due to dipolar attraction. Movie clips illustrating collision and molecule-formation dynamics of two bright and vortex-bright solitons are included.

Two-dimensional bright and dark-in-bright dipolar Bose–Einstein condensate solitons on a one-dimensional optical lattice

S K Adhikari

Abstract We study the statics and dynamics of anisotropic, stable, bright and dark-in-bright dipolar quasi-two-dimensional Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) solitons on a one-dimensional (1D) optical-lattice (OL) potential. These solitons mobile in a plane perpendicular to a 1D OL trap can have both repulsive and attractive contact interactions. Dark-in-bright solitons are the excited states of bright solitons. The solitons, when subjected to a small perturbation, exhibit sustained breathing oscillation. Dark-in-bright solitons can be created by phase imprinting a bright soliton. At medium velocities the collision between two solitons is found to be quasi-elastic. Results are demonstrated by a numerical simulation of the three-dimensional mean-field Gross–Pitaevskii equation in three spatial dimensions employing realistic interaction parameters for a dipolar 164 Dy BEC.

Bright dipolar Bose-Einstein-condensate soliton mobile in a direction perpendicular to polarization

Sadhan K. Adhikari

We demonstrate stable, robust, bright one-dimensional dipolar Bose-Einstein-condensate (BEC) solitons, moving in a direction perpendicular to the polarization direction, formed due to dipolar interaction for repulsive contact interaction. At medium velocity the head on collision of two such solitons is found to be quasielastic with practically no deformation. Upon small perturbation the solitons are found to exhibit sustained breathing oscillation. The findings are illustrated by numerical simulation using the three-dimensional mean-field Gross-Pitaevskii equation and a reduced two-dimensional model in three and two spatial dimensions employing realistic interaction parameters for a dipolar $^{164}\mathrm{Dy}$ BEC.

Soliton dimer–soliton scattering in coupled quasi-one-dimensional dipolar Bose–Einstein condensates

Gautam Hegde, Pranay Nayak, Ratheejit Ghosh +1 more

Abstract We discuss scattering between a bright soliton and a soliton dimer in coupled quasi-one-dimensional dipolar Bose–Einstein condensates. The dimer is formed by each soliton from both tubes due to the attractive inter-layer dipole–dipole interaction. The dipoles within each tube repel each other, and a stable, bright soliton is stabilized via attractive contact interactions. In general, the scattering is inelastic, transferring the kinetic energy into internal modes of both soliton dimer and single soliton. Our studies reveal rich scattering scenarios, including dimer–soliton repulsion at small initial velocities, exchange of atoms between dimer and single soliton and soliton fusion at intermediate velocities. Interestingly, for some particular initial velocities, the dimer–soliton scattering results in a state of two dimers. At large initial velocities, the scattering is elastic as expected.
