چکیده

A Hartree-Fock mean-field theory of a weakly interacting Bose-gas in a quenched white noise disorder potential is presented. A direct continuous transition from the normal gas to a localized Bose-glass phase is found which has localized short-lived excitations with a gapless density of states and vanishing superfluid density. The critical temperature of this transition is as for an ideal gas undergoing Bose-Einstein condensation. Increasing the particle-number density a first-order transition from the localized state to a superfluid phase perturbed by disorder is found. At intermediate number densities both phases can coexist.

Bosons in a Trap: Asymptotic Exactness of the Gross-pitaevskii Ground State Energy Formula

Recent experimental breakthroughs in the treatment of dilute Bose gases have renewed interest in their quantum mechanical description, respectively in approximations to it. The ground state properties of dilute Bose gases confined in external potentials and interacting via repulsive short range forces are usually described by means of the Gross-Pitaevskii energy functional. In joint work with E...

Bose-Einstein condensation of atomic gases in a general harmonic-oscillator confining potential trap.

Abstract: We present an analysis of Bose-Einstein condensation for a system of noninteracting spin-0 particles in a harmonic oscillator confining potential trap. We discuss why a confined system of particles differs both qualitatively and quantitatively from an identical system which is not confined. One crucial difference is that a confined system is not characterized by a critical temperature...

Superfluidity versus disorder in the discrete nonlinear Schrödinger equation.

We study the discrete nonlinear Schrödinger equation (DNLS) in an annular geometry with on-site defects. The dynamics of a traveling plane-wave maps onto an effective nonrigid pendulum Hamiltonian. The different regimes include the complete reflection and refocusing of the initial wave, solitonic structures, and a superfluid state. In the superfluid regime, which occurs above a critical value o...

Bose - Einstein Condensation of Dilute Gases in Traps

The ground state of a gas of Bosons confined in an external trap potential and interacting via repulsive two-body forces has recently been shown to exhibit complete Bose-Einstein condensation in the dilute limit, yielding for the first time a rigorous proof of this phenomenon in a physically realistic setting. We give here an account of this work about the Gross-Pitaevskii limit where the parti...

Collective Excitations of a Trapped Bose-Condensed Gas.

By taking the hydrodynamic limit we derive, at T = 0, an explicit solution of the linearized time dependent Gross-Pitaevskii equation for the order parameter of a Bose gas confined in a harmonic trap and interacting with repulsive forces. The dispersion law ω = ω0(2n 2 + 2nl+ 3n + l)1/2 for the elementary excitations is obtained, to be compared with the prediction ω = ω0(2n+ l) of the nonintera...
