J un 1 99 9 Coherence properties of an atom laser
We study the coherence properties of an atom laser, which operates by extracting atoms from a gaseous Bose-Einstein condensate via a two-photon Raman process, by analyzing a recent experiment [(Hagley et al., submitted to Phys. Rev. Lett. (1999)]. We obtain good agreement with the experimental data by solving the time-dependent Gross-Pitaevskii equation in three dimensions both numerically and ...
متن کاملSimplest Equation Method for nonlinear solitary waves in Thomas- Fermi plasmas
The Thomas-Fermi (TF) equation has proved to beuseful for the treatment of many physical phenomena. In this pa-per, the traveling wave solutions of the KdV equation is investi-gated by the simplest equation method. Also, the effect of differentparameters on these solitary waves is considered. The numericalresults is conformed the good accuracy of presented method.
متن کاملBose Condensate in External Potential : A Thomas - Fermi Approach
The Thomas-Fermi method [1] [2] was designed for the calculation of the electron density in a heavy atom, by treating the electrons as locally free. Lieb and Simon [3] showed that the treatment is exact in the limit when the atomic number goes to infinity. Application to a confined Bose condensate was pioneered by Goldman, Silvera, and Legget [4], and by Oliva [5], and recently reconsidered by ...

The effects of the nearest neighbour Coulomb repulsion, V , are considered in the one dimensional copper-oxide chain using the modified Lanczos method. Above a critical value of V we find that charge transfer excitons are the lowest lying energy exitations in the insulating phase. Close to the metal-insulator transition and V = 0 there is good 'particle-hole' symmetry, showing that the mapping ...

We present an optical trap for atoms that we have developed for precision spectroscopy measurements. Cold atoms are captured in a dark region of space inside a blue-detuned hollow laser beam formed by an axicon. We analyze the light potential in a ray optics picture and experimentally demonstrate trapping of laser-cooled metastable xenon atoms.
