Symbiotic gap and semigap solitons in Bose-Einstein condensates
Using the variational approximation and numerical simulations, we study one-dimensional gap solitons in a binary Bose-Einstein condensate trapped in an optical-lattice potential. We consider the case of interspecies repulsion, while the intraspecies interaction may be either repulsive or attractive. Several types of gap solitons are found: symmetric or asymmetric; unsplit or split, if centers o...
متن کاملSpatiotemporal dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensates in linear- and circular-chain optical lattices
We investigate the spatiotemporal dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensates in optical lattices that have a linear-or a circular-chain configuration with the tunneling couplings between nearest-neighbor lattice sites. A discrete nonlinear Schrödinger equation has been solved for various initial conditions and for a definite range of repulsive and attractive interatomic interactions. It is shown tha...
متن کاملTwo-component gap solitons with linear interconversion
We consider one-dimensional solitons in a binary Bose-Einstein condensate with linear coupling between the components, trapped in an optical-lattice potential. The interand intraspecies interactions may be either repulsive or attractive. The main effects considered here are spontaneous breaking of the symmetry between components in symmetric and antisymmetric solitons, and spatial splitting bet...
متن کاملCondensates of p-wave pairs are exact solutions for rotating two-component Bose gases.
We derive exact analytical results for the wave functions and energies of harmonically trapped two-component Bose-Einstein condensates with weakly repulsive interactions under rotation. The isospin symmetric wave functions are universal and do not depend on the matrix elements of the two-body interaction. The comparison with the results from numerical diagonalization shows that the ground state...
متن کاملDynamics and Stability of Bose-Einstein Condensates: The Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation with Periodic Potential
The cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation with a lattice potential is used to model a periodic dilute gas Bose-Einstein condensate. Both twoand three-dimensional condensates are considered, for atomic species with either repulsive or attractive interactions. A family of exact solutions and corresponding potential is presented in terms of elliptic functions. The dynamical stability of these exact...
