Controlling the collision between two solitons in the condensates by a double-barrier potential

We present an analytical solution of two solitons of Bose-Einstein condensates trapped in a double-barrier potential by using a multiple-scale method. In the linear case, we find that the stable spots of the soliton formation are at the top of the barrier potential and at the region of barrier potential absence. For weak nonlinearity, it is shown that the height of the barrier potential has an important effect on the dark soliton dynamical properties. Especially, in the case of regarding a double-barrier potential as the output source of the solitons, the collision spots between two dark solitons can be controlled by the height of the barrier potential.

Effect of a barrier potential on soliton dynamical characteristics in condensates

By using the multiple-scale method, this paper analytically studies the effect of a barrier potential on the dynamical characteristics of the soliton in Bose Einstein eondensates. It is shown that a stable soliton is exhibited at the top of the barrier potential and the region of the absence of the barrier potential. Meanwhile, it is found that the height of the barrier potential has an important effect on the dark soliton dynamical characteristics in the condensates. With the increase of height of the barrier potential, the amplitude of the dark soliton becomes smaller, its width is narrower, and the soliton propagates more slowly.

Effects of periodic optical lattice potential on dark solitons in a Bose Einstein condensate

This paper investigates the dynamics of dark solitons in a Bose-Einstein condensate with a magnetic trap and an optical lattice （OL） trap, and analyses the effects of the periodic OL potential on the dynamics by applying the variational approach based on the renormalized integrals of motion. The results show that the dark soliton becomes only a standing-wave and free propagation of the dark soliton is not possible when the periodic length of the OL potential is approximately equal to the effective width of the dark soliton. When the periodic length is very small or very large, the effects of the OL potential on the dark soliton will be sharply reduced. Finally, the numerical results confirm these theoretical findings.

Investigation of Bose-Einstein Condensates in q-Deformed Potentials with First Order Perturbation Theory

The Gross-Pitaevskii equation, which is the governor equation of Bose-Einstein condensates, is solved by first order perturbation expansion under various q-deformed potentials. Stationary probability distributions reveal one and two soliton behavior depending on the type of the q-deformed potential. Additionally a spatial shift of the probability distribution is found for the dark soliton solution, when the q parameter is changed.

Soliton dynamical properties of Bose Einstein condensates trapped in a double square well potential

We first present an analytical solution of the single and double solitions of Bose-Einstein condensates trapped in a double square well potential using the multiple-scale method. Then, we show by numerical calculation that a dark soliton can be transmitted through the square well potential. With increasing depth of the square well potential, the amplitude of the dark soliton becomes larger, and the soliton propagates faster. In particular, we treat the collision behaviour of the condensates trapped in either equal or different depths of the double square well potential. If we regard the double square well potential as the output source of the solitons, the collision locations （position and time） between two dark solitons can be controlled by its depth.

Controlling Soliton Collisions of Condensates by Time-Dependence of Both Interactions and External Potential

Considering time-dependence of both interactions and external potential,we analytically study the collisional behaviors of two bright solitons in Bose-Einstein condensates by using Darboux transformation.It is found that for a closed external potential,the soliton-soliton distance is decreased with nonlinearly increased interactions,while the amplitude of each soliton increases and its width decreases.For linearly increased interactions but nonlinearly decreased external potential,especially,the atom transfer between two solitons is observed,different from previous theory of no atom transfer in solitons collision in a fixed external potential.In addition,it is shown that the collisional type,such as head-on,"chase",or collision period between two solitons,can be controlled by tuning both interactions and external potential.The predicted phenomena can be observed under the condition of the current experiments and open possibilities for future application in atoms transport.

Self-trapped spatially localized states in combined linear-nonlinear periodic potentials

We analyze the existence and stability of two kinds of self-trapped spatially localized gap modes,gap solitons and truncated nonlinear Bloch waves,in one-and two-dimensional optical or matter-wave media with self-focusing nonlinearity,supported by a combination of linear and nonlinear periodic lattice potentials.The former is found to be stable once placed inside a single well of the nonlinear lattice,it is unstable otherwise.Contrary to the case with constant self-focusing nonlinearity,where the latter solution is always unstable,here,we demonstrate that it nevertheless can be stabilized by the nonlinear lattice since the model under consideration combines the unique properties of both the linear and nonlinear lattices.The practical possibilities for experimental realization of the predicted solutions are also discussed.
