‎Using the explicit forms of eigenstates for linearized operator related to a matrix version of Nonlinear Schrödinger equation‎, ‎soliton perturbation theory is developed for the $F=1$ bright spinor Bose-Einstein condensates‎. ‎A small disturbance of the integrability condition can be considered as a small correction to the integrable equation‎. ‎By choosing appropriate perturbation‎, ‎the soli...

A recent experiment [Deng et al., Nature 398, 218(1999)] demonstrated fourwave mixing of matter wavepackets created from a Bose-Einstein condensate. The experiment utilized light pulses to create two high-momentum wavepackets via Bragg diffraction from a stationary Bose-Einstein condensate. The high-momentum components and the initial low momentum condensate interact to form a new momentum comp...

It is shown that the quasi-one-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensate is experimentally accessible and rich in intriguing phenomena. We demonstrate numerically and analytically the existence, stability, and perturbation-induced dynamics of all types of stationary states of the quasi-one-dimensional nonlinear Schrödinger equation for both repulsive and attractive cases. Among our results are: the ...

We study the tunneling properties of a cigar-shaped Bose-Einstein condensate by using an effective 1D nonpolynomial nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NPSE). First we investigate a mechanism to generate periodic pulses of coherent matter by means of a Bose condensate confined in a potential well with an oscillating height of the energy barrier. We show that is possible to control the periodic emis...

Atom Michelson Interferometer on a Chip Using a Bose-Einstein Condensate" (2005).

The Bose-Einstein condensation is a fascinating phenomenon, which results from quantum statistics for identical particles with an integer spin. Surprising properties, such as superfluidity, vortex quantization or Josephson effect, appear owing to the macroscopic quantum coherence, which spontaneously develops in Bose-Einstein condensates. Realization of Bose-Einstein condensation is not restric...

We produce a Bose-Einstein condensate of 39K atoms. Condensation of this species with a naturally small and negative scattering length is achieved by a combination of sympathetic cooling with 87Rb and direct evaporation, exploiting the magnetic tuning of both inter- and intraspecies interactions at Feshbach resonances. We explore the tunability of the self-interactions by studying the expansion...

The general properties of the order parameter for a dipolar spinor Bose-Einstein condensate are discussed based on symmetries of interactions. An initially spin-polarized dipolar condensate is shown to dynamically generate a nonsingular vortex via spin-orbit interactions--a phenomenon reminiscent of the Einstein-de Haas effect in ferromagnets.
