Matter-wave scattering from ultracold atoms in an optical lattice.
We study matter-wave scattering from an ultracold, many-body atomic system trapped in an optical lattice. The angular cross section of the target lattice for a matter wave is determined and is demonstrated to have a strong dependence on the many-body phase, superfluid, or Mott insulator. Analytical approaches are employed deep in the superfluid and Mott-insulator regimes, while intermediate poi...
متن کاملExact matter-wave vortices in a driven optical lattice
We investigate vortex dynamics of a periodically driven Bose-Einstein condensate confined in a spatially two-dimensional optical lattice. An exact Floquet solution of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation is obtained for a certain parameter region which can be divided into the phase-jumping and phase-continuing regions. In the former region, the exact solution can describe spatiotemporal evolution of m...
متن کاملQuantum Effects in Matter-Wave Diffraction
Advances in micro-technology of the last years have made it possible to carry optics textbooks experiments over to atomic and molecular beams, such as diffraction by a double slit or transmission grating. The usual wave-optical approach gives a good qualitative description of these experiments. However, small deviations therefrom and sophisticated quantum mechanics yield new surprising insights...
متن کاملDissipative dynamics of matter-wave solitons in a nonlinear optical lattice
Dynamics and stability of solitons in two-dimensional 2D Bose-Einstein condensates BEC , with onedimensional 1D conservative plus dissipative nonlinear optical lattices, are investigated. In the case of focusing media with attractive atomic systems , the collapse of the wave packet is arrested by the dissipative periodic nonlinearity. The adiabatic variation of the background scattering length ...
متن کاملMatter - wave diffraction in time with a linear potential
Diffraction in time of matter waves incident on a shutter which is removed at time t = 0 is studied in the presence of a linear potential. The solution is also discussed in phase space in terms of the Wigner function. An alternative configuration relevant to current experiments where particles are released from a hard wall trap is also analyzed for single-particle states and for a Tonks-Girarde...
