Generation of compressed sub-poisson Bose condensate by an atom laser

The dynamics of Bose-condensate generation by a cw atom laser with simultaneous stimulated evaporative cooling in a magnetic trap was analyzed using a quantum-mechanical master equation. The model of the atom laser includes irreversible processes of incoherent trap mode pumping and spontaneous atomic transitions due to the interaction of the atomic ensemble with heat reservoirs. The inelastic atomic collisions in the trap and the continual coherent Bose-condensate output coupling from the trap were considered. At certain values of parameters, the Bose condensate created in this laser scheme occurs in a compressed sub-Poisson state. For large Bose condensates with a mean number of atoms ～10⁶, the Fano factor may be as high as ?0.5. The influence of spontaneous transitions from the excited trap modes on the statistics of Bose condensate was analyzed.
