Published Aug 7, 2001• 0 citations

Abstract

A simple model of an atomic Bose-Einstein condensate in a box whose size varies with time is studied to determine the nature of adiabaticity in the nonlinear dynamics obtained within the Gross-Pitaevskii equation (the nonlinear Schrödinger equation). Analytical and numerical methods are used to determine the nature of adiabaticity in this nonlinear quantum system. Criteria for validity of an adiabatic approximation are formulated.

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

Víctor M. Pérez‐García, Humberto Michinel, J. I. Cirac +2 more

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.

Nonlinear Dynamics of Bose-Einstein Condensates with Long-Range Interactions

G. Wunner, Holger Cartarius, Tomaž Fabčič +3 more

Abstract. The motto of this paper is: Let's face Bose-Einstein condensation through nonUnear dynamics. We do this by choosing variational forms of the condensate wave functions (of given symmetry classes), which convert the Bose-Einstein condensates via the time-dependent Gross-Pitaevskii equation into Hamiltonian systems that can be studied using the methods of nonUnear dynamics. We consider in particular cold quantum gases where long-range interactions between the neutral atoms are present, in addition to the conventional short-range contact interaction, viz. gravity-Uke interactions, and dipole-dipole interactions. The residts obtained serve as a useful giude in the search for nonlinear dynamics effects in numerically exact quantum calcinations for Bose-Einstein condensates. A main residt is the prediction of the existence of stable islands as well as chaotic regions for excited states of dipolar condensates, which coidd be checked experimentally.

Gross–Pitaevskii dynamics of Bose–Einstein condensates and superfluid turbulence

Malek Abid, Cristián Huepe, Stéphane Métens +4 more

The Gross–Pitaevskii equation, also called the nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE), describes the dynamics of low-temperature superflows and Bose–Einstein Condensates (BEC). We review some of our recent NLSE-based numerical studies of superfluid turbulence 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.

Entanglement dynamics in two-component Bose–Einstein condensates

Hao Ya-Jiang, Liang Jiu-Qing

Based on the exact solution of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation for two-species Bose–Einstein condensates (BECs) consisting of two hyperfine states of the atoms coupled by a tuned adiabatic and time-varying Raman coupling, we obtain analytically the entanglement dynamics of the system with various initial states, particularly the SU(2) coherent state, for both of cases with and without the nonlinear interactions. It is shown that the effect of nonlinear interaction on the entanglement appears only in a longer time period depending on the BEC parameters.
