RPA Study of Collective Excitations in the Bose-Fermi Mixed Condensate of Alkali-Metal Gases
نویسنده
چکیده
We perform RPA (Random Phase Approximation) study of collective excitations in the bose-fermi mixed degenerate gas of Alkali-metal atoms at T = 0. The calculation is done by diagonalization in a model space composed of particle-hole type excitations from the ground state, the latter being obtained from the coupled Gross-Pitaevskii and Thomas-Fermi equations. We investigate strength distributions for different combinations of bose and fermi multipole (L) operators with L = 0, 1, 2, 3. Transition densities and dynamical structure factors are calculated for collective excitations. Comparison with the sum rule prediction for the collective frequency is given. Time dependent behavior of the system after an external impulse is studied. Typeset using REVTEX 1

متن کاملAnalytical Estimate of the Critical Velocity for Vortex Pair Creation in Trapped Bose Condensates
We use a modified Thomas-Fermi approximation to analytically estimate the critical velocity for the formation of vortices in harmonically trapped BEC. We compare this analytical estimate to numerical calculations and to recent experiments on trapped alkali condensates. I. Introduction : The experimental realization of Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) in cold trapped alkali atoms has stimulated ...

متن کاملO ct 1 99 7 Damping of low - energy excitations of a trapped Bose condensate at finite temperatures
We present the theory of damping of low-energy excitations of a trapped Bose condensate at finite temperatures, where the damping is provided by the interaction of these excitations with the thermal excitations. We emphasize the key role of stochastization in the behavior of the thermal excitations for damping in non-spherical traps. The damping rates of the lowest excita-tions, following from ...
