Chaotic oscillation in an attractive Bose-Einstein condensate under an impulsive force
نویسندگان
چکیده
For an attractive trapped Bose-Einstein condensate an imaginary three-body recombination loss term and an imaginary linear source term are usually included in the Gross-Pitaevskii ~GP! equation for a proper account of dynamics. Under the action of an impulsive force, generated by suddenly changing the atomic interaction or the trapping potential, the solution of this complex GP equation for attractive interaction is found to lead to a very long-term chaotic oscillation.

Bound states of attractive Bose-Einstein condensates in shallow traps in two and three dimensions
Using variational and numerical solutions of the mean-field Gross-Pitaevskii equation for attractive interaction (with cubic or Kerr nonlinearity) we show that a stable bound state can appear in a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) in a localized exponentially-screened radially-symmetric harmonic potential well in two and three dimensions. We also consider an axially-symmetric configuration with ze...
متن کاملStability and collapse of a coupled Bose-Einstein condensate
The dynamics of a coupled Bose-Einstein condensate involving trapped atoms in two quantum states is studied using the time-dependent GrossPitaevskii equation including an interaction which can transform atoms from one state to the other. We find interesting oscillation of the number of atoms in each of the states. For all repulsive interactions, stable condensates are formed. When some of the a...
متن کاملSolitons 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 study the chaotic properties of steady-state traveling-wave solutions of the particle number density of a Bose-Einstein condensate with an attractive interatomic interaction loaded into a traveling optical lattice of variable shape. We demonstrate theoretically and numerically that chaotic traveling steady states can be reliably suppressed by small changes of the traveling optical lattice sh...
متن کاملCoupled Bose-Einstein condensate: Collapse for attractive interaction
We study the collapse in a coupled Bose-Einstein condensate of two types of bosons 1 and 2 under the action of a trap using the time-dependent Gross-Pitaevskii equation. The system may undergo collapse when one, two, or three of the scattering lengths ai j for scattering of boson i with j, i , j51,2, are negative representing an attractive interaction. Depending on the parameters of the problem...
