Quantum gas-liquid condensation in an attractive Bose gas.
Gas-liquid condensation (GLC) in an attractive Bose gas is studied on the basis of statistical mechanics. Using some results in combinatorial mathematics, the following are derived. (1) With decreasing temperature, the Bose-statistical coherence grows in the many-body wave function, which gives rise to the divergence of the grand partition function prior to Bose-Einstein condensation. It is a q...
متن کاملDistillation of bose-einstein condensates in a double-well potential.
Bose-Einstein condensates of sodium atoms, prepared in an optical dipole trap, were distilled into a second empty dipole trap adjacent to the first one. The distillation was driven by thermal atoms spilling over the potential barrier separating the two wells and then forming a new condensate. This process serves as a model system for metastability in condensates, provides a test for quantum kin...
متن کاملBose – Einstein condensation in a magnetic double - well potential
We present the first experimental realization of Bose–Einstein condensation in a purely magnetic double-well potential. This has been achieved by combining a static Ioffe–Pritchard trap with a time orbiting potential. The double trap can be rapidly switched to a single-harmonic trap of identical oscillation frequencies, thus accelerating the two condensates towards each other. Furthermore, we s...
متن کاملTunnelling induced collapse of an atomic Bose-Einstein condensate in a double-well potential
The stability of a low temperature Bose-Einstein condensate with attractive interactions in one and three dimensional double-well potentials is discussed. In particular, the tunnelling dynamics of a condensate under the influence of a timedependent potential gradient is investigated. The condensate is shown to collapse at a critical potential gradient which corresponds to a critical number of a...
متن کاملCritical temperature of Bose-Einstein condensation for weakly interacting bose gas in a potential trap
The critical temperature of Bose-Einstein condensation at minimum momentum state for weakly interacting Bose gases in a power-law potential and the deviation of the critical temperature from ideal bose gas are studied. The effect of interaction on the critical temperature is ascribed to the ratiao α/λc, where α is the scattering length for s wave and λc is de Broglie wavelength at critical temp...
