Analog quantum simulation of gravitational waves in a Bose-Einstein condensate
*Correspondence: [email protected] School of Mathematical Sciences, University of Nottingham, Nottingham, NG7 2RD, UK Abstract We show how to vary the physical properties of a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) in order to mimic an effective gravitational-wave spacetime. In particular, we focus in the simulation of the recently discovered creation of particles by a real spacetime distortion i...
متن کاملAnalog of photon-assisted tunneling in a Bose-Einstein condensate.
We study many-body tunneling of a small Bose-Einstein condensate in a periodically modulated, tilted double-well potential. Periodic modulation of the trapping potential leads to an analog of photon-assisted tunneling, with distinct signatures of the interparticle interaction visible in the amount of particles transferred from one well to the other. In particular, under experimentally accessibl...
متن کاملObservation of shock waves in a large Bose-Einstein condensate
We observe the formation of shock waves in a Bose-Einstein condensate containing a large number of sodium atoms. The shock wave is initiated with a repulsive blue-detuned light barrier, intersecting the BoseEinstein condensate, after which two shock fronts appear. We observe breaking of these waves when the size of these waves approaches the healing length of the condensate. At this time, the w...
متن کاملA SQUID Analog with a Bose-Einstein Condensate
November 29, 2013 (HP66). With APS Physics permission, we reproduce below the “Viewpoint” by Yuki Sato, which was published on November 11, 2013 in Physics 6, 123 (2013) | DOI: 10.1103/Physics.6.123. It highlights the article by C. Ryu, P. W. Blackburn, A. A. Blinova, and M. G. Boshier, published in Physical Review Letters 111, 205301 (2013). It also implies that macroscopic quantum effects in ...
متن کاملQuantum chaos of bogoliubov waves for a bose-einstein condensate in stadium billiards.
We investigate the possibility of quantum (or wave) chaos for the Bogoliubov excitations of a Bose-Einstein condensate in billiards. Because of the mean field interaction in the condensate, the Bogoliubov excitations are very different from the single particle excitations in a noninteracting system. Nevertheless, we predict that the statistical distribution of level spacings is unchanged by map...
