Nonlinear Dynamic Phenomena in Macroscopic Tunneling
نویسنده
چکیده
Numerical simulations of the NLSE (or GPE) are presented demonstrating emission of short pulses of the matter (light) density formed in the course of tunneling in wave-guided light and/or trapped BEC. The phenomenon is observed under various conditions, for nonlinearities of different signs, zero nonlinearity included. We study, both numerically and analytically, pulsations of matter (light) remaining within the trap and use the results in order to induce emission of sequential pulses by properly narrowing the trap. This allows us to propose a mechanism for a realization of Atom Pulse Laser.

Reentrance effect in macroscopic quantum tunneling and nonadiabatic Josephson dynamics in d-wave junctions.
We develop a theoretical description of nonadiabatic Josephson dynamics in superconducting junctions containing low energy quasiparticles. Within this approach we investigate the effects of midgap states in junctions of unconventional d-wave superconductors. We identify a reentrance effect in the transition between thermal activation and macroscopic quantum tunneling, and connect this phenomeno...
متن کاملCoherent atomic oscillations and resonances between coupled Bose-Einstein condensates with time-dependent trapping potential
We study the quantum coherent tunneling between two Bose-Einstein condensates separated through an oscillating trap potential. The cases of slow and rapid varying in the time trap potential are considered. In the case of a slowly varying trap, we study the nonlinear resonances and chaos in the oscillations of the relative atomic population. Using the Melnikov function approach, we find the cond...

We study the macroscopic quantum tunneling , self-trapping phenomena in two weakly coupled Bose-Einstein condensates with periodically time-varying atomic scattering length. The resonances in the oscillations of the atomic populations are investigated. We consider oscillations in the cases of macroscopic quantum tunneling and the self-trapping regimes. The existence of chaotic oscillations in t...
متن کاملInstanton Induced Tunneling Amplitude at Excited States with the Lsz Method
Quantum tunneling between degenerate ground states through the central barrier of a potential is extended to excited states with the instanton method. This extension is achieved with the help of an LSZ reduction technique as in field theory and may be of importance in the study of macroscopic quantum phenomena in magnetic systems. Quantum effects on the macroscopic scale have attracted consider...
متن کاملMössbauer, the X-ray Edge, and Macroscopic Quantum Effects
We discuss materials science examples of quantum phenomena embedded in a macroscopic, classical world. We present simple derivations showing the effects of the external world on gammaray emission (the Mössbauer effect), X-ray absorbtion (the overlap catastrophe), and on tunneling (macroscopic quantum tunneling and the Kondo effect). We draw some experimental lessons about the role of the extern...
