Collective modes of a trapped Lieb-Liniger gas: a hydrodynamic approach

Abstract

We consider a trapped repulsive one-dimensional (1D) Bose gas at very low temperature. In order to study the collective modes of this strongly interacting system, we use a hydrodynamic approach, where the gas is locally described by the Lieb-Liniger model of bosons interacting via a repulsive delta potential. Solving the corresponding linearized hydrodynamic equations, we obtain the collective modes and concentrate more specifically on the lowest compressional mode. This is done by finding models, approaching very closely the exact equation of stae of the gas, for which the linearized hydrodynamic equations are exactly solvable. Results are in excellent agreement with those of the sum rule approach of Menotti and Stringari.

Hydrodynamic modes of a one-dimensional trapped Bose gas

Jean-Noël Fuchs, X. Leyronas, R. Combescot

We consider two regimes where a trapped Bose gas behaves as a one-dimensional (1D) system. In the first one the Bose gas is microscopically described by 3D mean-field theory, but the trap is so elongated that it behaves as a 1D gas with respect to low-frequency collective modes. In the second regime we assume that the 1D gas is truly 1D and that it is properly described by the Lieb-Liniger model. In both regimes we find the frequency of the lowest compressional mode by solving the hydrodynamic equations. This is done by making use of a method which allows us to find analytical or quasianalytical solutions of these equations for a large class of models approaching very closely the actual equation of state of the Bose gas. We find an excellent agreement with the recent results of Menotti and Stringari obtained from a sum-rule approach.

Analytic thermodynamic properties of the Lieb-Liniger gas

Matthew L. Kerr, Giulia De Rosi, Karen V. Kheruntsyan

We present a comprehensive review on the state-of-the-art of the approximate analytic approaches describing the finite-temperature thermodynamic quantities of the Lieb-Liniger model of the one-dimensional (1D) Bose gas with contact repulsive interactions. This paradigmatic model of quantum many-body-theory plays an important role in many areas of physics-thanks to its integrability and possible experimental realization using, e.g., ensembles of ultracold bosonic atoms confined to quasi-1D geometries. The thermodynamics of the uniform Lieb-Liniger gas can be obtained numerically using the exact thermal Bethe ansatz (TBA) method, first derived in 1969 by Yang and Yang. However, the TBA numerical calculations do not allow for the in-depth understanding of the underlying physical mechanisms that govern the thermodynamic behavior of the Lieb-Liniger gas at finite temperature. Our work is then motivated by the insights that emerge naturally from the transparency of closed-form analytic results, which are derived here in six different regimes of the gas and which exhibit an excellent agreement with the TBA numerics. Our findings can be further adopted for characterising the equilibrium properties of inhomogeneous (e.g., harmonically trapped) 1D Bose gases within the local density approximation and for the development of improved hydrodynamic theories, allowing for the calculation of breathing mode frequencies which depend on the underlying thermodynamic equation of state. Our analytic approaches can be applied to other systems including impurities in a quantum bath, liquid helium-4, and ultracold Bose gas mixtures.

Beyond Gross-Pitaevskii equation for 1D gas: quasiparticles and solitons

Jakub Kopyciński, Maciej Łebek, Maciej Marciniak +3 more

Describing properties of a strongly interacting quantum many-body system poses a serious challenge both for theory and experiment. In this work, we study excitations of one-dimensional repulsive Bose gas for arbitrary interaction strength using a hydrodynamic approach. We use linearization to study particle (type-I) excitations and numerical minimization to study hole (type-II) excitations. We observe a good agreement between our approach and exact solutions of the Lieb-Liniger model for the particle modes and discrepancies for the hole modes. Therefore, the hydrodynamical equations find to be useful for long-wave structures like phonons and of a limited range of applicability for short-wave ones like narrow solitons. We discuss potential further applications of the method.

Hydrodynamic Modes in a Trapped Bose Gas above the Bose-Einstein Transition

Adam Griffin, Wen-Chin Wu, S. Stringari

We discuss the collective modes of a trapped Bose gas in the hydrodynamic regime where atomic collisions ensure local thermal equilibrium for the distribution function. Starting from the conservation laws, in the linearized limit we derive a closed equation for the velocity fluctuations in a trapped Bose gas above the Bose-Einstein transition temperature. Explicit solutions for a parabolic trap are given. We find that the surface modes above the transition have the same dispersion relation as the one recently obtained by Stringari for the oscillations of the condensate at $T\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}0$ within the Thomas-Fermi approximation. Results are also given for the monopole ``breathing'' mode as well as for the $m\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}0$ excitations which result from the coupling of the monopole and quadrupole modes in an anisotropic parabolic well.

Generalized hydrodynamics in the one-dimensional Bose gas: theory and experiments

Isabelle Bouchoule, Jérôme Dubail

Abstract We review the recent theoretical and experimental progress regarding the generalized hydrodynamics (GHD) behavior of the one-dimensional (1D) Bose gas with contact repulsive interactions, also known as the Lieb–Liniger gas. In the first section, we review the theory of the Lieb–Liniger gas, introducing the key notions of the rapidities and of the rapidity distribution. The latter characterizes the Lieb–Liniger gas after relaxation and is at the heart of GHD. We also present the asymptotic regimes of the Lieb–Liniger gas with their dedicated approximate descriptions. In the second section we enter the core of the subject and review the theoretical results of GHD in 1D Bose gases. The third and fourth sections are dedicated to experimental results obtained in cold atom experiments: the experimental realization of the Lieb–Liniger model is presented in section 3, with a selection of key results for systems at equilibrium, and section 4 presents the experimental tests of the GHD theory. In section 5 we review the effects of atom losses, which, assuming slow loss processes, can be described within the GHD framework. We conclude with a few open questions.

Hydrodynamic versus collisionless dynamics of a one-dimensional harmonically trapped Bose gas

Giulia De Rosi, S. Stringari

By using a sum-rule approach we investigate the transition between the hydrodynamic and the collisionless regime of the collective modes in a one-dimensional (1D) harmonically trapped Bose gas. Both the weakly interacting gas and the Tonks-Girardeau limits are considered. We predict that the excitation of the dipole compression mode is characterized in the high-temperature collisionless regime by a beating signal of two different frequencies (${\ensuremath{\omega}}_{z}$ and $3{\ensuremath{\omega}}_{z}$), while in the high-temperature collisional regime, the excitation consists of a single frequency ($\sqrt{7}{\ensuremath{\omega}}_{z}$). This behavior differs from the case of the lowest breathing mode whose excitation consists of a single frequency ($2{\ensuremath{\omega}}_{z}$) in both regimes. Our predictions for the dipole compression mode open promising perspectives for the experimental investigation of collisional effects in 1D configurations.
