Topology Induced Spatial Bose-Einstein Condensation for Bosons on Star-Shaped Optical Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
New coherent states may be induced by pertinently engineering the topology of a network. As an example, we consider the properties of non-interacting bosons on a star network, which may be realized with a dilute atomic gas in a star-shaped deep optical lattice. The ground state is localized around the star center and it is macroscopically occupied below the Bose-Einstein condensation temperature Tc. We show that Tc depends only on the number of the star arms and on the Josephson energy of the bosonic Josephson junctions and that the non-condensate fraction is simply given by the reduced temperature T/Tc.

The effects of next to nearest neighbor hopping on Bose- Einstein condensation in cubic lattices
Abstract. In this paper, we present results of our calculations on the effects of next to nearest neighbor boson hopping (t′) energy on Bose-Einstein condensation in cubic lattices. We consider both non-interacting and repulsively interacting bosons moving in the lowest Bloch band. The interacting bosons are studied making use of the Bogoliubov method. We find that the bose condensation tempera...
متن کاملBose-Einstein condensation of finite number of confined particles
The partition function and specific heat of a system consisting of a finite number of bosons confined in an external potential are calculated in different spatial dimensions. Using the grand partition function as the generating function of the partition function, an iterative scheme is established for the calculation of the partition function of system with an arbitrary number of particles. The...
متن کاملThe curvaton as a Bose-Einstein condensate of chiral pseudo Nambu-Goldstone bosons
Explaining cosmic inflation by the effective dynamics of an SU(NC) pure gauge theory of scale Λ ∼ 10−6 Mp is lacking an explanation of the (Gaussian) spatial curvature perturbations needed to seed the formation of large-scale structure after inflation. In this work it is demonstrated how fundamentally charged fermions of mass mF ∼ 10−12 Λ, whose approximate chiral symmetry is spontaneously brok...
متن کاملBose-Einstein condensation of stationary-light polaritons.
We propose and analyze a mechanism for Bose-Einstein condensation of stationary dark-state polaritons. Dark-state polaritons (DSPs) are formed in the interaction of light with laser-driven 3-level Lambda-type atoms and are the basis of phenomena such as electromagnetically induced transparency, ultraslow, and stored light. They have long intrinsic lifetimes and in a stationary setup, a 3D quadr...
متن کاملON qp-DEFORMATIONS IN STATISTICAL MECHANICS OF BOSONS IN D DIMENSIONS
The Bose distribution for a gas of nonrelativistic free bosons is derived in the framework of qp-deformed second quantization. Some thermodynamical functions for such a system in D dimensions are derived. Bose-Einstein condensation is discussed in terms of the parameters q and p as well as a parameter ν ′ 0 which characterizes the representation space of the oscillator algebra. The Bose distrib...
