Kármán vortex street in a spin–orbit-coupled Bose–Einstein condensate with PT symmetry

The dynamics of spin–orbit-coupled Bose–Einstein condensate with parity-time symmetry through a moving obstacle potential is simulated numerically. In the miscible two-component condensate, the formation of the Kármán vortex street is observed in one component, while ‘the half-quantum vortex street' is observed in the other component. Other patterns of vortex shedding, such as oblique vortex dipoles, V-shaped vortex pairs, irregular turbulence, and combined modes of various wakes, can also be found. The ratio of inter-vortex spacing in one row to the distance between vortex rows is approximately0.18, which is less than the stability condition 0.28 of classical fluid. The drag force acting on the obstacle potential is simulated. The parametric regions of Kármán vortex street and other vortex patterns are calculated. The range of Kármán vortex street is surrounded by the region of combined modes. In addition, spin–orbit coupling disrupts the symmetry of the system and the gain-loss affects the local particle distribution of the system, which leads to the local symmetry breaking of the system, and finally influences the stability of the Kármán vortex street. Finally, we propose an experimental protocol to realize the Kármán vortex street in a system.

Mode dynamics of Bose–Einstein condensates in a single-well potential

We investigate dynamics of Bose–Einstein condensates(BECs) in a single-well potential using the mode-coupling method. Symmetry is shown to play a key role in the coupling between modes. A proper mode-coupling theory of the dynamics of BECs in a single-well potential should include at least four modes. In this context, the ideal BEC system can be decomposed into two independent subsystems when the coupling is caused by external potential perturbation and is linear. The mode dynamics of non-ideal BECs with interaction shows rich behavior. The combination of nonlinear coupling and initial condition leads to the different regimes of mode dynamics, from regularity to non-regularity, which also indicates a change of the dependence of coupling on the symmetry of modes.

Probability of Obtaining the Planck Constant, in a Universe Modeled as a Giant Black Hole by Bose Einstein Condensates of Gravitons Using Hawking Argument and Scaling

We use the methodology of A. D. Linde to model the probability of obtaining a cosmological constant which is in turn affected by scaling arguments for a Bose Einstein gravitational condensate as given by Chavanis, in 2015. The net result, is that the scaling argument so provided allows for a gravitational constant commensurate with the size of the Universe, using arguments which appear to be simple but which give, if one has the conditions for modeling the Universe as a “black hole” virtually 100 % chance for the cosmological constant arising.

A Rotating Bose-Einstein Condensation in a Toroidal Trap

We have studied the ground state configurations of a rotating Bose-Einstein condensation in a toroidal trap as the radius of the central Gaussian potential expands adiabatically.Firstly,we observe that the vortices are devoured successively into the central hole of the condensate to form a giant vortex as the radius of the trap expands.When all the pre-existing vortices are absorbed,the angular momentum of the system still increase as the radius of the gaussian potential enlarges.When increasing the interaction strength,we find that more singly quantized vortices are squeezed into the condensate,but the giant vortex does not change.

New Families of Soliton and Periodic Solutions of Bose-Einstein Condensation in Linear Magnetic Field and Time-Dependent Laser Field

By using a new generally projective Riccati equation method and with the help of symbolic computation,we consider a nonlinear Gross-Pitaevskii equation with weak bias magnetic and time-dependent laser fields. As a result,some new soliton solutions, rational function solution, and periodic solutions are obtained.

Bose-Einstein condensation on an atom chip

This paper reports an experiment of creating Bose-Einstein condensate （BEC） on an atom chip. The chip-based Z-wire current with a homogeneous bias magnetic field creates a tight magnetic trap, which allows for a fast production of BEC. After a 4.17-s forced radio frequency evaporative cooling, a condensate with about 3000 atoms appears. The transition temperature is about 300 nK. This compact system is quite robust, allowing for versatile extensions and further studying of BEC.

Modified White Hole Enthalpy Coupled to Quantum Bose-Einstein Condensate at Extremely Low Entropy

We model the universe as a white hole, and in the process we perform detailed analysis of the enthalpy equation of the modified white hole, and we get a much detailed picture of when and how did;quantum gravity (cosmology) phase, inflationary phase, and the acceleration phase of the universe happened. We determine the field equations of the modified white hole and evolve the scale factor and compare the evolution to the thermodynamic properties of the universe. We also illustrate that the strong energy condition is violated, but both the null energy condition and the strong cosmic censorship are not violated. Lastly, we couple the enthalpy to the Bose-Einstein condensate at extremely low entropy at the quantum gravity (cosmology) regime. Thereafter, we determine the unstable condition of the Bose-Einstein quantum equation which we interpret as the moment when the big bang occurred.

The wave function of the atoms is given. The stability factor determining the BEC and the selection rules of the quantum transition are solved.

Quantitative and Qualitative Analysis of Bose—Einstein Condensation in Harmonic Traps

A simple and direct approach to handle summation is presented. With this approach, we analytically investigate Bose-Einstein condensation of ideal Bose gas trapped in an isotropic harmonic oscillator potential. We get the accurate expression of Tc which is very close to (0.43% larger than) the experimental data. We find the curve of internal energy of the system vs. temperature has a turning point which marks the beginning of a condensation. We also find that there exists specific heat jump at the transition temperature, no matter whether the system is macroscopic or finite. This phenomenon could be a manifestation of a phase transition in finite systems.

Temperature dependence of the energy-level shift induced by the Bose-Einstein condensation of photons

We investigate the energy-level shift of a hydrogen atom in a two-dimensional optical microcavity, where there exists a Bose-Einstein condensation of photons. It is found that below the critical temperature Tc, the energy-level shift of the bound electron is dependent on temperature, and it is a monotonically increasing function of the absolute temperature T. Especially, at the absolute zero temperature, the energy-level shift entirely comes from the Lamb shift, and the atom can be treated approximately, that is, in vacuum.

Variational Monte Carlo analysis of Bose-Einstein condensation in a two-dimensional trap

The ground-state properties of a system with a small number of interacting bosons over a wide range of densities are investigated. The system is confined in a two-dimensional isotropic harmonic trap, where the interaction between bosons is treated as a hard-core potential. By using variational Monte Carlo method, we diagonalize the one-body density matrix of the system to obtain the ground-state energy, condensate wavefunction and the condensate fraction. We find that in the dilute limit the depletion of central condensate in the 2D system is larger than in a 3D system for the same interaction strength; however as the density increases, the depletion at the centre of 2D trap will be equal to or even lower than that at the centre of 3D trap, which is in agreement with the anticipated in Thomas-Fermi approximation. In addition, in the 2D system the total condensate depletion is still larger than in a 3D system for the same scattering length.

Exact periodic wave and soliton solutions in two-component Bose-Einstein condensates

We present several families of exact solutions to a system of coupled nonlinear Schrodinger equations. The model describes a binary mixture of two Bose-Einstein condensates in a magnetic trap potential. Using a mapping deformation method, we find exact periodic wave and soliton solutions, including bright and dark soliton pairs.

Periodically modulated interaction effect on transport of Bose–Einstein condensates in lattice with local defects

We theoretically investigate the periodically modulated interaction effect on the propagation properties of a traveling plane wave in a Bose–Einstein condensate(BEC) trapped in a deep annular lattice with local defects both analytically and numerically. By using the two-mode ansatz and the tight-binding approximation, a critical condition for the system preserving the superfluidity is obtained analytically and confirmed numerically. We find that the coupled effects of periodic modulated atomic interactions, the quasi-momentum of the plane wave, and the defect can control the superfluidity of the system. Particularly, when we consider the periodic modulation in the system with single defect, the critical condition for the system entering the superfluid regime depends on both the defect and the momentum of the plane wave. This is different from the case for the system without the periodic modulation, where the critical condition is only determined by the defect. The modulation and quasi-momentum of the plane wave can enhance the system entering the superfluid regime. Interestingly, when the modulated amplitude/frequency, the defect strength, and the quasi-momentum of the plane wave satisfy a certain condition, the system will always be in the superfluid region. This engineering provides a possible means for studying the periodic modulation effect on propagation properties and the corresponding dynamics of BECs in disordered optical lattices.

Interactions between bright solitons in different species of Bose-Einstein condensates

The dynamics of a bright bright vector soliton in a cigar-shaped Bose-Einstein condensate trapping in a harmonic potential is studied. The interaction between bright solitons in different species with small separation is derived. Unlike the interaction between solitons of the same species, it is independent of the phase difference between solitons. It may be of attraction or repulsion. In the former case, each soliton will oscillate about and pass through each other around the mass-center of the system, which will also oscillate harmonically due to the harmonic trapping potential.

Landau damping of collective modes in a harmonically trapped Bose-Einstein condensate

This paper proposes a method for calculating the Landau damping of a low-energy collective mode in a harmonically trapped Bose-Einstein condensate. Based on the divergence-free analytical solutions for ground-state wavefunction of the condensate and eigenvalues and eigenfunctions for thermally excited quasiparticles, obtained beyond Thomas-Fermi approximation, this paper calculates the coupling matrix elements describing the interaction between the collective mode and the quasiparticles. With these analytical results this paper evaluates the Landau damping rate of a monopole mode in a spherical trap and discusses its dependence on temperature, particle number and trapping frequency of the system.

Nonlinear transport of Bose-Einstein condensates in a double barrier potential

The stable nonlinear transport of the Bose-Einstein condensates through a double barrier potential in a waveguide is studied. By using the direct perturbation method we have obtained a perturbed solution of Cross-Pitaevskii equation. Theoretical analysis reveals that this perturbed solution is a stable periodic solution, which shows that the transport of Bose-Einstein condensed atoms in this system is a stable nonlinear transport. The corresponding numerical results are in good agreement with the theoretical analytical results.

Landau damping of collective mode in a quasi-two-dimensional repulsive Bose-Einstein condensate

We investigate the Landau damping of the collective mode in a quasi-two-dimension repulsive Bose-Einstein condensate by using the self-consistent time-dependent Hatree-Fock-Bogoliubov approximation and a complete and orthogonal eigenfunction set for the elementary excitation of the system. We calculate the three-mode coupling matrix element between the collective mode and the thermal excited quasi-particles and the Landau damping rate of the collective mode. We discuss the dependence of the Landau damping on temperature, on atom number in the condensate, on transverse trapping frequency and on the length of the condensate. The energy width of the collective mode is taken into account in our calculation. With little approximation, our theoretic calculation results agree well with the experimental ones and are helpful for deducing the damping mechanics and the inter-particle interaction.
