Abstract

We study properties of excited states of an array of weakly coupled quasi-two-dimensional Bose condensates by using the hydrodynamic theory. We calculate multibranch Bogoliubov-Bloch spectrums and its corresponding eigenfunctions. The spectrum of the axial excited states and its eigenfunctions strongly depends on the coupling among various discrete radial modes within a given symmetry. This mode coupling is due to the presence of radial trapping potential. The multibranch nature of the Bogoliubov-Bloch spectrum and its dependence on the mode-coupling can be realized by analyzing dynamic structure factor and momentum transferred to the system in Bragg spectroscopy experiments. We also study dynamic structure factor and momentum transferred to the condensate due to the Bragg spectroscopy experiment.

Multibranch Bogoliubov-Bloch spectrum of a cigar-shaped Bose condensate in an optical lattice

Tarun Kanti Ghosh, K. Machida

We study properties of excited states of an array of weakly coupled quasi-two-dimensional Bose condensates by using the hydrodynamic theory. The spectrum of the axial excited states strongly depends on the coupling among the various discrete radial modes in a given symmetry. By including mode coupling within a given symmetry, the complete excitation spectrum of axial quasiparticles with various discrete radial nodes are presented. A single parameter which determines the strength of the mode coupling is identified. The excitation spectrum in the zero angular momentum sector can be observed by using the Bragg scattering experiments.

Bogoliubov spectrum and Bragg spectroscopy of elongated Bose-Einstein condensates

C Tozzo, F. Dalfovo

The behaviour of the momentum transferred to a trapped Bose-Einstein condensate by a two-photon Bragg pulse reflects the structure of the underlying Bogoliubov spectrum. In elongated condensates, axial phonons with different numbers of radial nodes give rise to a multibranch spectrum which can be resolved in Bragg spectroscopy, as shown by Steinhauer et al (2003 Phys. Rev. Lett. 90 060404). Here we present a detailed theoretical analysis of this process. We calculate the momentum transferred by numerically solving the time-dependent Gross-Pitaevskii (GP) equation. In the case of a cylindrical condensate, we compare the results with those obtained by linearizing the GP equation and using a quasiparticle projection method. This analysis shows how the axial-phonon branches affect the momentum transfer, in agreement with our previous interpretation of the observed data. We also discuss the applicability of this type of spectroscopy to typical available condensates, as well as the role of nonlinear effects.

Bragg Spectroscopy of the Multibranch Bogoliubov Spectrum of Elongated Bose-Einstein Condensates

Jeff Steinhauer, Nadav Y. Katz, Roee Ozeri +3 more

We measure the response of an elongated Bose-Einstein condensate to a two-photon Bragg pulse. If the duration of the pulse is long, the total momentum transferred to the condensate exhibits a nontrivial behavior which reflects the structure of the underlying Bogoliubov spectrum. It is thus possible to perform a spectroscopic analysis in which axial phonons with a different number of radial nodes are resolved. The local density approximation is shown to fail in this regime, while the observed data agree well with the results of simulations based on the numerical solution of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation.

Dynamic Structure Factor of an Optically Trapped Dipolar Bose—Einstein Condensate

Wei Qi, Zhaoxin Liang, Zhang Zhi-dong

Motivated by the recent experimental achievements in using the Bragg spectroscopy to measure the excitation spectrum of an ultra-cold atomic system with long-range interactions, we investigate the dynamic structure factor of a cigar-shaped dipolar Bose condensate trapped in a one-dimensional optical lattices. Our results show that the Bogoliubov bands of the system, particularly the lowest one, can be significantly influenced when one tunes the dipole orientation. Consequently, the calculated static structure factor of an optically trapped dipolar Bose gas shows marked difference from the non-dipolar one. Moreover, we show that the effects of dipole-dipole interaction on the dynamic structure factor is also strongly affected by the strength of the optical confinement.

Superfluid dynamics of a Bose–Einstein condensate in a one-dimensional optical superlattice

Aranya B. Bhattacherjee

We derive and study the Bloch and Bogoliubov spectrum of a Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) confined in a one-dimensional optical superlattice (created by interference between a primary optical lattice and a secondary optical lattice of small strength), using the Bogoliubov approximation and the hydrodynamic theory with mode coupling. We show that a BEC in an optical superlattice experiences two different tunnelling parameters and hence behaves like a diatomic chain. We derive expressions for the tunnelling parameters as a function of the strength of the primary and secondary lattice. This gives rise to a gapped branch in addition to the gapless acoustical branch in the Bogoliubov spectrum. The spectrum strongly depends on the strength of the secondary lattice, the interaction parameter and the number density of atoms. The effective mass is found to increase as the depth of the secondary optical lattice increases, a property that was utilized in Paraedes et al (2004 Nature 429 277) to achieve the Tonks–Girardeau regime. The coupling between the inhomogeneous density in the radial plane and the density modulation along the optical lattice gives rise to a multibranch Bogoliubov spectrum.

Dynamic structure factor of a Fermi superfluid in the BEC-BCS crossover

Tarun Kanti Ghosh

We consider cigar-shaped Fermi superfluid in the Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC)-BCS crossover. Using the polytropic form of equation of state, we derive low energy multibranch bosonic excitations and the corresponding density fluctuations in three different regimes along the crossover, namely weak-coupling BCS, unitarity, and molecular BEC regimes. Bragg spectroscopy can be used to probe the multibranch nature of the low-energy bosonic excitations by measuring the dynamic structure factor. Therefore we calculate the dynamic structure factor in those three different regimes. In Bragg spectroscopy, an actual observable is momentum imparted to the superfluid due to the Bragg potential. We also present results of the momentum imparted to the superfluid due to the Bragg pulses.
