Vortices in Bose-Einstein Condensates
A Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) was only experimentally realised in 1995. Research into nonlinear phenomenon (such as vortices) that exist in a BEC is thus in its infancy and a full understanding of how vortices move and interact is still lacking. A Bose-Einstein condensate is described by the GrossPitaevskii (GP) equation, a semi-classical non-linear PDE, given in terms of a wavefunction. In ...
متن کاملKibble-Zurek scaling and its breakdown for spontaneous generation of Josephson vortices in Bose-Einstein condensates.
Atomic Bose-Einstein condensates confined to a dual-ring trap support Josephson vortices as topologically stable defects in the relative phase. We propose a test of the scaling laws for defect formation by quenching a Bose gas to degeneracy in this geometry. Stochastic Gross-Pitaevskii simulations reveal a -1/4 power-law scaling of defect number with quench time for fast quenches, consistent wi...
متن کاملJosephson effects in dilute bose-einstein condensates
We propose an experiment that would demonstrate the dc and ac Josephson effects in two weakly linked Bose-Einstein condensates. We consider a time-dependent barrier, moving adiabatically across the trapping potential. The phase dynamics are governed by a "driven-pendulum" equation, as in current-driven superconducting Josephson junctions. At a critical velocity of the barrier (proportional to t...
متن کاملVortices in atomic-molecular Bose–Einstein condensates
The structure and stability of vortices in hybrid atomic-molecular Bose–Einstein condensates is analysed in the framework of a two-component Gross–Pitaevskii-type model that describes the stimulated Raman-induced photoassociation process. New types of topological vortex states are predicted to exist in the coherently coupled two-component condensates even without a trap, and their nontrivial dy...
متن کاملVortices in Bose-Einstein Condensates: Theory
Vortices are pervasive in nature, representing the breakdown of laminar fluid flow and hence playing a key role in turbulence. The fluid rotation associated with a vortex can be parameterized by the circulation Γ = ∮ dr · v(r) about the vortex, where v(r) is the fluid velocity field. While classical vortices can take any value of circulation, superfluids are irrotational, and any rotation or an...
