Scattering length instability in dipolar Bose-Einstein condensates.
We predict a new kind of instability in a Bose-Einstein condensate composed of dipolar particles. Namely, a comparatively weak dipole moment can produce a large, negative two-body scattering length that can collapse the Bose-Einstein condensate. To verify this effect, we validate mean-field solutions to this problem using exact, diffusion Monte Carlo methods. We show that the diffusion Monte Ca...
متن کاملTuning the dipolar interaction in quantum gases.
We have studied the tunability of the interaction between permanent dipoles in Bose-Einstein condensates. Based on time-dependent control of the anisotropy of the dipolar interaction, we show that even the very weak magnetic dipole coupling in alkali gases can be used to excite collective modes. Furthermore, we discuss how the effective dipolar coupling in a Bose-Einstein condensate can be tune...
متن کاملEffective dipole-dipole interactions in multilayered dipolar Bose-Einstein condensates
We propose a two-dimensional model for a multilayer stack of dipolar Bose-Einstein condensates formed by a strong optical lattice. We derive effective intraand interlayer dipole-dipole interaction potentials and provide simple analytical approximations for a given number of lattice sites at arbitrary polarization. We find that the interlayer dipole-dipole interaction changes the transverse aspe...
متن کاملDimension reduction for dipolar Bose-Einstein condensates in the strong interaction regime
We study dimension reduction for the three-dimensional GrossPitaevskii equation with a long-range and anisotropic dipole-dipole interaction modeling dipolar Bose-Einstein condensation in a strong interaction regime. The cases of disk shaped condensates (confinement from dimension three to dimension two) and cigar shaped condensates (confinement to dimension one) are analyzed. In both cases, the...
متن کاملCollapse of Bose-Einstein condensates with dipole-dipole interactions
Bose-Einstein condensation of dilute trapped atomic gases @1,2# essentially depends on the interparticle interactions. In most experiments so far the dominated interactions have been short-range van der Waals forces which are characterized by the s-wave scattering length a. Spatially homogeneous condensates with positive scattering length ~repulsive interaction! are stable while condensates wit...
