Abstract

The Gross-Pitaevskii equation, also called the nonlinear Schr"odinger equation (NLSE), describes the dynamics low-temperature superflows and Bose-Einstein Condensates (BEC).We review some recent NLSE based numerical studies of superfluid turbu- lence and BEC stability.The relations with experiments are discussed.

Gross–Pitaevskii description of superfluid dynamics at finite temperature: A short review of recent results

Marc Brächet

The Gross–Pitaevskii equation (GPE) describes the dynamics of superflows and Bose–Einstein Condensates (BEC) at very low temperature. When a truncation of Fourier modes is performed, the resulting truncated GPE (TGPE) can also describe the correct thermal behavior of a Bose gas, as long as all relevant modes are highly occupied [M.J. Davis, S.A. Morgan, K. Burnett, Simulations of Bose fields at finite temperature, Phys. Rev. Lett. 87 (16) (2001) 160402]. We review some of our groupʼs recent GPE- and TGPE-based numerical studies of superfluid dynamics and BEC stability. The relations with experiments are discussed.

Nonlinear Schrodinger equations for Bose-Einstein condensates

Luigi Galati, Shijun Zheng

The Gross-Pitaevskii equation, or more generally the nonlinear Schrödinger equation, models the Bose-Einstein condensates in a macroscopic gaseous superfluid wave-matter state in ultra-cold temperature. We provide analytical study of the NLS with L2 initial data in order to understand propagation of the defocusing and focusing waves for the BEC mechanism in the presence of electromagnetic fields. Numerical simulations are performed for the two-dimensional GPE with anisotropic quadratic potentials.

We investigated dynamics of superfluid turbulence by the Gross-Pitaevskii equation and its relation to conventional classical turbulence. We introduced the dissipation term which is effective only in the scale smaller than the core size of quantized vortices, and found that the energy spectrum of superfluid turbulence was consistent with the Kolmogorov law which is one of the most important statistical laws of classical turbulence.

Dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensates: Variational solutions of the Gross-Pitaevskii equations

A variational technique is applied to solve the time-dependent nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation (Gross-Pitaevskii equation) with the goal to model the dynamics of dilute ultracold atom clouds in the Bose-Einstein condensed phase. We derive analytical predictions for the collapse, equilibrium widths, and evolution laws of the condensate parameters and find them to be in very good agreement with our numerical simulations of the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation. It is found that not only the number of particles, but also both the initial width of the condensate and the effect of different perturbations to the condensate may play a crucial role in the collapse dynamics. The results are applicable when the shape of the condensate is sufficiently simple.
