An effective method of accelerating Bose gases using magnetic coils

Based on the experimental device which is a non-uniform magnetic field to trap an atom, we show how to obtain a certain velocity of a Bose gas by controlling the magnetic coils. By comparing the relationship of the different current supply and delay time versus the ultimate velocity of the atom, we theoretically predict the method of accelerating the gases to an expected velocity. This method is of great convenience and significance for the applications in cold atom physics and precision measurements.     

Quantum Groups GLp,q(2)- and $\mathit{SU}_{q_{1}/q_{2}}(2)$ -Invariant Bosonic Gases: A Comparative Study

We discuss the algebras, representations, and thermodynamics of quantum group bosonic gas models with two different symmetries: GL _p,q (2) and . We establish the nature of the basic numbers which follow from these GL _p,q (2)- and -invariant bosonic algebras. The Fock space representations of both of these quantum group invariant bosonic oscillator algebras are analyzed. It is concisely shown that these two quantum group invariant bosonic particle gases have different algebraic and high-temperature thermo-statistical properties.

Two-species mixture of quantum degenerate Bose and Fermi gases

We have produced a macroscopic quantum system in which a 6Li Fermi sea coexists with a large and stable 23Na Bose-Einstein condensate. This was accomplished using interspecies sympathetic cooling of fermionic 6Li in a thermal bath of bosonic 23Na. The system features rapid thermalization and long lifetimes.     

Upper limit on the transition temperature for non-ideal Bose gases

In this paper, we show that for a non-ideal Bose gas there exists an upper limit on the transition temperature above which Bose-Einstein condensation cannot occur regardless of the pressure applied. Such upper limits for some realistic Bose gases are estimated.

Thermodynamics of a two-dimensional interacting Bose gas trapped in a quartic potential

We have studied the Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) of an interacting Bose gas confined in a two-dimensional (2D) quartic potential by using a mean-field, semiclassical two-fluid model. A thermodynamic analysis including the chemical potential, condensate fraction, total energy, and specific heat has been carried out by considering different values of the interaction strength. Finally, we have found that the behaviour of the condensate fraction and specific heat of quartically trapped bosons differs from those of bosons trapped in a harmonic potential.     

Quantum phases of Bose gases on a lattice with pair-tunneling

We investigate the strongly interacting lattice Bose gases on a lattice with two-body interaction of nearest neighbors characterized by pair tunneling.The excitation spectrum and the depletion of the condensate of lattice Bose gases are investigated using the Bogoliubov transformation method and the results show that there is a pair condensate as well as a single particle condensate.The various possible quantum phases,such as the Mott-insulator phase(MI),the superfluid phase(SF) of an individual atom,the charge density wave phase(CDW),the supersolid phase(SS),the pair-superfluid(PSF) phase,and the pair-supersolid phase(PSS) are discussed in different parametric regions within our extended Bose-Hubbard model using perturbation theory.     

Macroscopic quantum tunneling of a bose condensate

We study, by means of a variational method, the stability of a condensate in a magnetically trapped atomic Bose gas with a negative scattering length and find that the condensate is unstable in general. However, for temperatures sufficiently close to the critical temperature the condensate turns out to be metastable. For that case we determine in the usual WKB approximation the decay rate of the condensate due to macroscopic quantum fluctuations. When appropriate, we also calculate the decay rate due to thermal fluctuations. An important feature of our approach is that (nonsingular) phase fluctuations of the condensate are taken into account exactly.     

Thermodynamics Properties of Confined Particles on Noncommutative Plane

We consider a system of $N$ particles living on the noncommutative plane in the presence of a confining potential and study its thermodynamics properties.Indeed, after calculating the partition function, we determine the corresponding internal energy and heat capacity where different corrections are obtained. In analogy with the magnetic field case, we define an effective magnetization and study its susceptibility in terms of the noncommutative parameter $\theta$. By introducing the chemical potential, we investigate the Bose-Einstein condensation for the present system. Different limiting cases related to the temperature and $\theta$ will be analyzed as well as some numerical illustration will be presented.

Phonon Superfluids in Sets of Trapped Ions

We show that transverse phonons in a set of trapped ions under the action of lasers are described by an interacting boson model whose parameters can be externally adjusted. If the radial trapping frequency is large enough, the system is described by a Bose–Hubbard model, in which hopping of the phonons between different ions is provided by the Coulomb interaction. On the other hand, the non-linear terms in the interaction of the ions with a standing-wave provide us with the phonon–phonon interaction. We investigate the possibility of observing several quantum many—body phenomena, including (quasi)Bose–Einstein Condensation as well as a superfluid-Mott insulator quantum phase transition.     

Scattering of neutrons on a Bose condensate

The spectrum of noncondensate excitations in neutron scattering on bosons is obtained in the framework of the Bogoliubov models both for liquid ⁴He and a dilute gas. The problem is solved using a path-integral representation of the partition function of the system. We describe the influence of scattering of neutrons on a Bose condensate in a stationary (time-independent) picture in the Gibbs equilibrium ensemble. This influence is a stationary boson response, and it depends on the initial neutron momentum k, transfer momentum p, and the neutron-boson interaction λ, which is related to the scattering length. The contribution of the neutrons to the initial Bogoliubov spectrum is found to be important for “quasi-elastic” scattering on the noncondensate, while the contribution of deep inelastic scattering is small; no contribution from elastic scattering on the Bose condensate is found. In the case of liquid Helium, the response is unlikely to be observable for all values p. On the other hand, for a gas one may expect a visible effect, in particular for a small momentum transfer p and a small density of the Bose condensate ϱ.     

Power-law scalings in weakly-interacting Bose gases at quantum criticality

Weakly interacting quantum systems in low dimensions have been investigated for a long time, but there still remain a number of open questions and a lack of explicit expressions of physical properties of such systems. In this work, we find power-law scalings of thermodynamic observables in low-dimensional interacting Bose gases at quantum criticality. We present a physical picture for these systems with the repulsive interaction strength approaching zero; namely, the competition between the kinetic and interaction energy scales gives rise to power-law scalings with respect to the interaction strength in characteristic thermodynamic observables. This prediction is supported by exact Bethe ansatz solutions in one dimension, demonstrating a simple 1/3-power-law scaling of the critical entropy per particle. Our method also yields results in agreement with a non-perturbative renormalization-group computation in two dimensions. These results provide a new perspective for understanding many-body phenomena induced by weak interactions in quantum gases.     

Thermodynamics of a quantum dissipative charged magneto‐oscillator

Quantum dissipative effect on the thermodynamics of an electron in the combined presence of a parabolic potential and a uniform (and homogeneous) magnetic field, is investigated here. Starting from the microscopic system plus bath model, we explicitly derive the thermodynamic properties using the reduced partition function of the system which is calculated using the imaginary time path integral method. The quantum heat bath we consider here is a structured heat bath whose spectral density corresponds to a structured thermal harmonic noise. All the statistical thermodynamic functions calculated do reconcile with the requirements of the fundamental axioms of physics. In particular, the specific heat and the entropy vanishes as the temperature approaches its absolute zero value, a necessity of the third law of thermodynamics. Moreover the specific heat satisfies classical equipartition theorem at high temperatures. The coefficients of the leading temperature dependent terms of the thermodynamic quantities depend only on the damping constant but not on other parameters of the bath spectral density, which is similar to the analysis based on the Drude bath spectral density. Our study facilitates the physics of small quantum systems, which are always in contact with some environments, at very low temperatures.

     

Renormalisation group approach to the ideal Bose gas ind dimensions

Critical behaviour of ad-dimensional ideal Bose gas is investigated from the point of view of the renormalisation-group approach. Rescaling of quantum-field amplitudes is avoided by introducing a scaling variable inversely proportional to the thermal momentum of the particles. The scaling properties of various thermodynamic quantities are seen to emerge as a consequence of the irrelevant nature of this variable. Critical behaviour is discussed at fixed particle density as well as at fixed pressure. Connection between susceptibility and correlation function of the order-parameter for a quantum system is elucidated.     

Ground state of rotating ultracold quantum gases with anisotropic spin orbit coupling and concentrically coupled annular potential

Motivated by recent experimental realization of synthetic spin–orbit coupling in neutral quantum gases, we consider the quasi-two-dimensional rotating two-component Bose–Einstein condensates with anisotropic Rashba spin–orbit coupling subject to concentrically coupled annular potential. For experimentally feasible parameters, the rotating condensate exhibits a variety of rich ground state structures by varying the strengths of the spin–orbit coupling and rotational frequency.Moreover, the phase transitions between different ground state phases induced by the anisotropic spin–orbit coupling are obviously different from the isotropic one.     

Collective modes of a quasi-two-dimensional Bose condensate in large gas parameter regime

We have theoretically studied the collective modes of a quasi-two-dimensional (Q2D) Bose condensate in the large gas parameter regime by using a formalism which treats the interaction energy beyond the mean-field approximation. The results show that incorporation of this higher order term leads to significant modifications in the mode frequencies.

A new open spin chain hamiltonian is introduced. It is both integrable (Sklyanin's type K matrices are used to achieve this) and invariant under ε (sl(2)) transformations in nilpotent irreps for ε³ = 1. Some considerations on the centralizer of nilpotent representations and its representation theory are also presented.
