A ug 2 00 2 Dynamics of bright matter wave solitons in a quasi 1 D Bose - Einstein condensate with a rapidly varying trap

چکیده
The dynamics of a bright matter wave soliton in a quasi 1D Bose-Einstein condensate with periodically rapidly varying trap is considered. The governing equation is derived based on averaging over fast modulations of the Gross-Pitaevskii (GP) equation. This equation has the form of GP equation with effective potential of more complicated structure than unperturbed trap. For the case of inverted (expulsive) quadratic trap corresponding to unstable GP equation, the effective potential can be stable. For the bounded in space trap potential it is showed that the bifurcation exists, i.e.,the single well potential bifurcates to the triple well effective potential. Stabilization of BEC cloud on-site state in the temporary modulated optical lattice is found. (analogous to the Kapitza stabilization of the pendulum). The predictions of the averaged GP equation are confirmed by the numerical simulations of GP equation with rapid perturbations.

Solitons for nearly integrable bright spinor Bose-Einstein condensate
Using the explicit forms of eigenstates for linearized operator related to a matrix version of Nonlinear Schrödinger equation, soliton perturbation theory is developed for the $F=1$ bright spinor Bose-Einstein condensates. A small disturbance of the integrability condition can be considered as a small correction to the integrable equation. By choosing appropriate perturbation, the soli...

We report the production of matter-wave solitons in an ultra-cold Li gas. The effective interaction between atoms in a Bose-Einstein condensate is tuned with a Feshbach resonance from repulsive to attractive before release in a one-dimensional optical waveguide. Propagation of the soliton without dispersion over a macroscopic distance of 1.1 mm is observed. A simple theoretical model explains t...

Collisions between bright solitary waves in the 1D Gross-Pitaevskii equation with a harmonic potential, which models a trapped atomic Bose-Einstein condensate, are investigated theoretically. A particle analogy for the solitary waves is formulated and shown to be integrable for a two-particle system. The extension to three particles is shown to support chaotic regimes. Good agreement is found b...
متن کاملInteraction of two one-dimensional Bose-Einstein solitons: chaos and energy exchange.
We analyze the bright soliton interactions of a Bose-Einstein condensate in quasi-one-dimensional traps putting an emphasis on integrability break down due to a trapping potential. In particular, we derive a simple analytical model, which describes well all major features of soliton dynamics including chaos and energy exchange between interacting solitons induced by the trapping potential.

The dynamics of matter-wave solitons in Bose-Einstein condensates (BEC) is considerably affected by the presence of a thermal cloud and the dynamical depletion of the condensate. Our numerical results, based on the time-dependent Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov theory, demonstrate the collapse of the attractively interacting BEC via collisional emission of atom pairs into the thermal cloud, which split...
