Hidden topological order in $^{23}Na (F=1)$ Bose-Einstein Condensates

Abstract

We show the existence of a new hidden topological order in $^{23}Na$ (F=1) Bose-Einstein condensates (BEC) with antiferromagnetic interactions. Occurrence of this order is due to the confinement of hedgehogs in BEC where a spin Josephson effect takes place. However, a topological long range order is also argued to coexist with a short range spin correlation, as a result of topological order from disorder.

Quantum Spin Nematic States in Bose–Einstein Condensates

Fei Zhou

We review some recent results on discrete symmetries and topological order in spinor Bose–Einstein condensates (BECs) of 23Na. For spin one bosons with two-body scatterings dominated by a total spin equal to two channel, the BECs are in quantum spin nematic states at a low density limit. We study spin correlations in condensates at different limits and analyze hidden symmetries using a non-perturbative approach developed recently. Furthermore we investigate the influence of hidden Z2 symmetries and U(1) quantum orders in symmetry partially restored states, particularly the effects on topological excitations.

Rotating Dipolar Spin-1 Bose–Einstein Condensates

Tapio Simula, Jukka A. M. Huhtamäki, Masahiro Takahashi +2 more

We have computed phase diagrams for rotating spin-1 Bose-Einstein condensates with long-range magnetic dipole-dipole interactions. Spin textures including vortex sheets, staggered half-quantum- and skyrmion vortex lattices and higher order topological defects have been found. These systems exhibit both superfluidity and magnetic crystalline ordering and they could be realized experimentally by imparting angular momentum in the condensate.

Kinetics of Bose–Einstein Condensate Formation in an Interacting Bose Gas

Yu. Kagan

The kinetics of the formation of coherent correlation properties associated with Bose condensation is studied in detail. The evolution of a nonequilibrium state with no “condensate-seed” is related to a hierarchy of relaxation times. At the first stage, a particle flux in energy space toward low energies sets in. The evolution in this case is described by a nonlinear Boltzmann equation, with a characteristic time given by interparticle collisions. When the particles which will later form the condensate have a kinetic energy which is less than the potential energy, a quasicondensate starts to form. In this stage, fluctuations of the density (but not of the phase) are suppressed and short-range coherent correlation properties are governed by the equation of motion for a quasiclassical complex field. The next stage is connected with the formation of the long-range order. The time for forming topological order and therefore genuine superfluidity proves to be dependent on the system size. The off-diagonal long-range order, arising after the attenuation of long-wave phase fluctuations, has a size-dependent relaxation time as well. Introduction The problem of Bose–Einstein Condensation (BEC) kinetics, being interesting in itself, has acquired a special significance in connection with experimental efforts to observe this condensation in a number of systems with particles with a finite lifetime. Such systems include spin-polarized atomic hydrogen [1], excitons [2] and biexcitons [3] in semiconductors and, more recently, laser-cooled atomic systems [4].

Antiferromagnetic Order in a Spin-Orbit Coupled Bose-Einstein Condensate

Zhongbo Yan, Shaolong Wan

Spin-orbit coupling related new physics and quantum magnetism are two branches of great interest both in condensed matter physics and in cold atomic physics. With the introduction of a Rashba-like SOC into a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) loaded in a two-dimensional bipartite optical square lattice, we find that the ground state of the BEC always favors a coherent condensate than a fragmented condensate and always exhibits very large degeneracy, and most importantly, an antiferromagnetic order of quantum nature emerges when parameters satisfy certain condition. This provides an ideal platform to study the interplay of antiferromagnetic phase and superfluid phase.

Phase separation and hidden vortices induced by spin-orbit coupling in spin-1 Bose-Einstein condensates

Li, Ji, Yanmei Yu, Kaijun Jiang +1 more

We investigate phase separation and hidden vortices in spin-orbit coupled ferromagnetic BoseEinstein condensates with rotation and Rabi coupling. The hidden vortices are invisible in density distribution but are visible in phase distribution, which can carry angular momentum like the ordinary quantized vortices. In the absence of the rotation, we observe the phase separation induced by the spin-orbit coupling and determine the entire phase diagram of the existence of phase separation. For the rotation case, in addition to the phase separation, we demonstrate particularly that the spin-orbit coupling can result in the hidden vortices and hidden vortex-antivortex pairs. The corresponding entire phase diagrams are determined, depending on the interplay of the spin-orbit coupling strength, the rotation frequency, and Rabi frequency, which reveals the critical condition of the occurrence of the hidden vortices and vortex-antivortex pairs. The hidden vortices here are proved to be long-lived in the time scale of experiment by the dynamic analysis. These findings not only provide a clear illustration of the phase separation in spin-orbit coupled spinor Bose-Einstein condensates, but also open a new direction for investigating the hidden vortices in high-spin quantum system.

Long-range superfluid order in trapped Bose-Einstein condensates with spin-orbit coupling

Gang Chen, Jie Ma, Suotang Jia

In this paper we explore the low-dimension long-range superfluid order in the trapped Bose-Einstein condensate driven by spin-orbit coupling at any finite temperature. With the help of the Bogoliubov inequality we give rigorous proofs in both one and two dimensions. For one dimension, no long-range superfluid order can be found, even if spin-orbit coupling exists. For two dimensions, we find that the long-range superfluid order cannot be ruled out in the presence of the unequal Rashba-Dresselhaus-type spin-orbit coupling. However, this long-range superfluid order disappears for the equal case, which has been achieved in recent experiments.
