Simple method for excitation of a Bose-Einstein condensate

Abstract

An appropriate, time-dependent modification of the trapping potential may be sufficient to create effectively collective excitations in a cold atom Bose-Einstein condensate. The proposed method is complementary to earlier suggestions and should allow the creation of both dark solitons and vortices.

Method for collective excitation of a Bose-Einstein condensate

Zbyszek P. Karkuszewski, Krzysztof Sacha, Jakub Zakrzewski

It is shown that by an appropriate modification of the trapping potential, one may create collective excitation in a cold atom Bose-Einstein condensate. The proposed method is complementary to earlier suggestions. It seems to be feasible experimentally---it requires only a proper change in time of the potential in atomic traps, as realized in laboratories already.

Coupling between Topological Excitations and the Background Sound Field in Atomic Bose-Einstein Condensates

Nick P. Proukakis, Nicholas G. Parker, Carlo Barenghi +1 more

Topological excitations in quantum fluids are coupled to the background sound field. This leads to a continuous exchange of energy between the two systems, as a result of which, the topological excitation can become deformed and its trajectory modified. These effects are considered in detail for dark solitons in trapped one-dimensional atomic Bose-Einstein condensates. The energy emitted by the dark soliton incident on a background potential gradient is shown to be proportional to the square of both the soliton deformation and the local soliton acceleration. Depending on the trap geometry, this energy can be partly or fully reabsorbed by the soliton, thus affecting its stability. The extension to vortices in trapped atomic condensates is discussed.

Topological excitations in quantum fluids are coupled to the background sound field. This leads to a continuous exchange of energy between the two systems, as a result of which, the topological excitation can become deformed and its trajectory modified. These effects are considered in detail for dark solitons in trapped one-dimensional atomic Bose-Einstein condensates. The energy emitted by the dark soliton incident on a back-ground potential gradient is shown to be proportional to the square of both the soliton deformation and the local soliton acceleration. Depending on the trap geometry, this energy can be partly or fully reabsorbed by the soliton, thus affecting its stability. The extension to vortices in trapped atomic condensates is discussed.
