Yang-Yang thermodynamics of one-dimensional Bose gases with anisotropic transversal confinement

By combining the thermodynamic Bethe ansatz and local density approximation, we investigate the Yang-Yang thermodynamics of interacting one-dimensional Bose gases with anisotropic transversal confinement. It is shown that with the increase of anisotropic parameter at low temperature, the Bose atoms are distributed over a wider region, while at high temperature the density distribution is not affected obviously. Both the temperature and transversal confinement can strengthen the local pressure of the Dose gases.

Optimal preparation of Bose and Fermi atomic gas mixtures of ^(87)Rb and ^(40)K in a crossed optical dipole trap

We report on the optimal production of the Bose and Fermi mixtures with ^(87) Rb and ^(40)K in a crossed optical dipole trap(ODT).We measure the atomic number and lifetime of the mixtures in combination of the spin state |F=9/2,m_F=9/2) of^(40)K and |1,1>of ^(87) Rb in the ODT,which is larger and longer compared with the combination of the spin state 19/2,9/2) of^(40)K and 12,2) of ^(87)Rb in the ODT.We observe the atomic numbers of ^(87)Rb and ^(40)K shown in each stage of the sympathetic cooling process while gradually reducing the depth of the optical trap.By optimizing the relative loading time of atomic mixtures in the MOT,we obtain the large atomic number of ^(40)K(~6 ×10^(6)) or the mixtures of atoms with an equal number(~1.6 × 10^(6)) at the end of evaporative cooling in the ODT.We experimentally investigate the evaporative cooling in an enlarged volume of the ODT via adding a third laser beam to the crossed ODT and found that more atoms(8 × 10^(6)) and higher degeneracy(T/T_(F)=0.25) of Fermi gases are obtained.The ultracold atomic gas mixtures pave the way to explore phenomena such as few-body collisions and the Bose-Fermi Hubbard model,as well as for creating ground-state molecules of ^(87)Rb^(40)K.

Dynamics of momentum distribution and structure factor in a weakly interacting Bose gas with a periodical modulation

The momentum distribution and dynamical structure factor in a weakly interacting Bose gas with a time-dependent periodic modulation in terms of the Bogoliubov treatment are investigated.The evolution equation related to the Bogoliubov weights happens to be a solvable Mathieu equation when the coupling strength is periodically modulated.An exact relation between the time derivatives of momentum distribution and dynamical structure factor is derived,which indicates that the single-particle property is strongly related to the two-body property in the evolutions of Bose–Einstein condensates.It is found that the momentum distribution and dynamical structure factor cannot display periodical behavior.For stable dynamics,some particular peaks in the curves of momentum distribution and dynamical structure factor appear synchronously,which is consistent with the derivative relation.

Study of dynamical behaviour and fermionization of a bosonic gas in funnel potential

This paper presents a funnel external potential model to investigate dynamic properties of ultracold Bose gas. By using variational method, we obtain the ground-state energy and density properties of ultracold Bose atoms. The results show that the ultracold Bose gas confined in a funnel potential experiences the transition from three-dimensional regime to quasi-one-dimensional regime in a small aspect ratio, and undergoes fermionization process as the aspect ratio increases.

Spin–orbit coupled Bose–Einstein condensates with Rydberg-dressing interaction

Interaction between Rydberg atoms can be used to control the properties of interatomic interaction in ultracold gases by weakly dressing the atoms with a Rydberg state. Here we investigate the effect of the Rydberg-dressing interaction on the ground-state properties of a Bose–Einstein condensate imposed by Raman-induced spin–orbit coupling. We find that,in the case of SU（2）-invariant s-wave interactions, the gas is only in the plane-wave phase and the zero-momentum phase is absent. In particular, we also predict an unexpected magnetic stripe phase composed of two plane-wave components with unequal weight when s-wave interactions are non-symmetric, which originates from the Rydberg-dressing interaction.

Dimensional crossover of a Rabi-coupled two-component Bose–Einstein condensate in an optical lattice

Dimensionality is a central concept in developing the theory of low-dimensional physics.However,previous research on dimensional crossover in the context of a Bose-Einstein condensate(BEC)has focused on the single-component BEC.To our best knowledge,further consideration of the two-component internal degrees of freedom on the effects of dimensional crossover is still lacking.In this work,we are motivated to investigate the dimensional crossover in a three-dimensional(3D)Rabi-coupled two-component BEC.The spin degrees of freedom consist of the Rabi-like and inter-and intra-interaction coupling constants.The dimensional crossovers from 3D to 2D or 1D are controlled by the continuous increase of 1D or 2D lattice depth respectively.Then we analyze how the dimensionality of the model system combined with spin degrees of freedom can affect quantum fluctuations.Accordingly,the analytical expressions of the ground-state energy and quantum depletion of the system are obtained.Our results show that the dimensional crossover induces a characteristic 3D to quasi-2D or 1D crossover in the behavior of quantum fluctuations,with an emphasis on the separated effects of Rabi-like and inter-and intra-interaction coupling constants on the quantum fluctuations.Conditions for possible experimental realization of our scenario are also discussed.

Critical temperature and condensed fraction of Bose-Einstein condensation in an external potential

Based on Bose-Einstein condensation at minimized momentum state, we get the expressions for the critical temperature and condensed fraction of Bose-Einstein condensation （BEC） in an external potential in the three-dimensional （3D） case. For the 1D and 2D cases, we present not only the critical temperature and corresponding particles but also the condition of BEC occurrence.

Semiclassical Axisymmetric Lattice Boltzmann Method

A semiclassical lattice Boltzmann method is presented for axisymmetric flows of gas of particles of arbitrary statistics.The method is first derived by directly projecting the Uehling-Uhlenbeck Boltzmann-BGK equations in twodimensional rectangular coordinates onto the tensor Hermite polynomials using moment expansion method and then the forcing strategy of Halliday et al.(Phys.Rev.E.,64(2001),011208)is adopted and forcing term is added into the resulting microdynamic evolution equation.The determination of the forcing terms is dictated by yielding the emergent macroscopic equations toward a particular target form.The correct macroscopic equations of the incompressible axisymmetric viscous flows are recovered through the Chapman-Enskog expansion.Computations of uniform flow over a sphere to verify the method are included.The results also indicate distinct characteristics of the effects of quantum statistics.
