Abstract

The phase separation and vortex states in a two-component Bose-Einstein condensate consisting of | F = 1, m f = 1〉 and |2, 1〉 internal spin states of 87 Rb atoms are considered in the framework of the Thomas-Fermi approximation. It is shown that in the nonrotating system, the atoms in the state |1, −1〉 form a shell around the atoms in the state |2, 1〉. The critical angular velocity for each state is calculated. These velocities depend drastically on the relative concentrations of the components, the critical angular velocity of the outer component being less than the angular velocity of the inner one. It is shown that the atoms in the |1, −1〉 state can form a rotating ring around the resting core of the atoms in the |2, 1〉 state.

Equilibrium vortex formation in ultrarapidly rotating two-component Bose-Einstein condensates

C.-H. Hsueh, Tzyy‐Leng Horng, Shih-Chuan Gou +1 more

Equilibrium vortex formation in rotating binary Bose gases with a rotating frequency higher than the harmonic trapping frequency is investigated theoretically. We consider the system being evaporatively cooled to form condensates and a combined numerical scheme is applied to ensure the binary system being in an authentic equilibrium state. To keep the system stable against the large centrifugal force of ultrafast rotation, a quartic trapping potential is added to the existing harmonic part. Using the Thomas-Fermi approximation, a critical rotating frequency ${\ensuremath{\Omega}}_{c}$ is derived, which characterizes the structure with or without a central density hole. Vortex structures are studied in detail with rotation frequency both above and below ${\ensuremath{\Omega}}_{c}$ and with respect to the miscible, symmetrically separated, and asymmetrically separated phases in their nonrotating ground-state counterparts.

Phase separation and vortex states in binary mixture of Bose-Einstein condensates in trapping potentials with displaced centers

S. T. Chui, Valentin Nikolaevich Ryzhov, E. E. Tareyeva

A system of two simultaneously trapped condensates consisting of 87 Rb atoms in two different hyperfine states is investigated theoretically in the case where the minima of the trapping potentials are displaced with respect to each other. It is shown that the small shift of the minima of the trapping potentials leads to a considerable displacement of the centers of mass of the condensates, in agreement with the experiment. It is also shown that the critical angular velocities of the vortex states of the system drastically depend on the shift and the relative number of particles in the condensates, and there is a possibility to exchange the vortex states between condensates by shifting the centers of the trapping potentials.

Vortex states in a binary mixture of Bose-Einstein condensates

The vortex configurations in the Bose-Einstein condensate of a mixture of two different spin states $|{F=1,m}_{f}=\ensuremath{-}1〉$ and $|2,1〉$ of ${}^{87}\mathrm{Rb}$ atoms corresponding to the recent experiments by Matthews et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 83, 2498 (1999)] are considered in the framework of the Thomas-Fermi approximation as functions of ${N}_{2}{/N}_{1},$ where ${N}_{1}$ is the number of atoms in the state $|1,\ensuremath{-}1〉$ and ${N}_{2}$ in the state $|2,1〉.$ Ranges of this ratio are determined within which the various configurations of the binary condensate are stable.

Vortex lattice locking in rotating two-component Bose–Einstein condensates

Ryan Barnett, Gil Refael, Mason Alexander Porter +1 more

The vortex density of a rotating superfluid, divided by its particle mass, dictates the superfluid's angular velocity through the Feynman relation. To find how the Feynman relation applies to superfluid mixtures, we investigate a rotating two-component Bose–Einstein condensate, composed of bosons with different masses. We find that in the case of sufficiently strong interspecies attraction, the vortex lattices of the two condensates lock and rotate at the drive frequency, while the superfluids themselves rotate at two different velocities, whose ratio equals the ratio between the particle masses of the two species. In this paper, we characterize the vortex-locked state, establish its regime of stability, and find that it survives within a disk smaller than a critical radius, beyond which vortices become unbound and the two Bose-gas rings rotate together at the frequency of the external drive.

Structure of vortices in two-component Bose-Einstein condensates

Dora M. Jezek, P. Capuzzi, Horacio M. Cataldo

We develop a three-dimensional analysis of the phase separation of two-species Bose-Einstein condensates in the presence of vorticity within the Thomas-Fermi approximation. We find different segregation features according to whether the more repulsive component is in a vortex or in a vortex-free state. An application of this study is aimed at describing systems formed by two almost immiscible species of rubidium-87 that are commonly used in Bose-Einstein condensation experiments. In particular, in this work we calculate the density profiles of condensates for the same conditions as the states prepared in the experiments performed at JILA [Matthews et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 83, 2498 (1999)].
