Excitation spectrum of a Bose-Einstein condensate.
We report a measurement of the excitation spectrum omega(k) and the static structure factor S(k) of a Bose-Einstein condensate. The excitation spectrum displays a linear phonon regime, as well as a parabolic single-particle regime. The linear regime provides an upper limit for the superfluid critical velocity, by the Landau criterion. The excitation spectrum agrees well with the Bogoliubov spec...
متن کاملWatching a superfluid untwist itself: Recurrence of Rabi oscillations in a Bose-Einstein condensate
Quantization and persistence of current in superconductors and superfluids can be understood in terms of the topology of the order parameter. Current arises from a gradient in the phase of the order parameter. Quantization of flow around a closed path is a consequence of the requirement that the order parameter be single-valued; metastability, or “persistence”, arises from the fact the number o...
متن کاملSuperstripes and the excitation spectrum of a spin-orbit-coupled Bose-Einstein condensate.
Using Bogoliubov theory we calculate the excitation spectrum of a spinor Bose-Einstein condensed gas with an equal Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling in the stripe phase. The emergence of a double gapless band structure is pointed out as a key signature of Bose-Einstein condensation and of the spontaneous breaking of translational invariance symmetry. In the long wavelength limit the lo...
متن کاملMethod for collective excitation of a Bose-Einstein condensate
Spectacular experimental realizations of the BoseEinstein condensate ~BEC! in cooled and trapped atomic gases @1–3# stimulated intensive investigations of possible modifications, control, and manipulations of this new state of matter. Here a macroscopic sample of atoms is in a well defined quantum state. Thus several typically quantummechanical phenomena may now be investigated on a macroscopic...
متن کاملInternal Spatial Oscillations in a Single Trapped Bose–Einstein Condensate
I predict the existence of internal spatial currents in a single macroscopic quantum system, namely in trapped dilute-gas at sufficiently low temperatures, when a Bose-Einstein condensation occurs. The spatial profiles of the wavefunctions of low-lying states in such a system are different due to the inhomogeneity, caused by an asymmetry of external trapping potential. This is the reason for ap...
