Critical properties of a trapped interacting Bose gas
A. Bezett, P. B. Blakie
We develop a practical theoretical formalism for studying the critical properties of a trapped Bose-Einstein condensate using the projected Gross-Pitaevskii equation. We show that…
Lattice Interferometer for Ultra-Cold Atoms
Mikkel F. Andersen, Tycho Sleator
We demonstrate an atomic interferometer based on ultra-cold atoms released from an optical lattice. This technique yields a large improvement in signal to noise over a related inte…
PGPE theory of finite temperature collective modes for a trapped Bose gas
A. Bezett, P. B. Blakie
We develop formalism based on the projected Gross Pitaevskii equation to simulate the finite temperature collective mode experiments of Jin et al. [PRL 78, 764 (1997)]. We examine…
Quantum mechanical potentials related to the prime numbers and Riemann zeros
Daniel Schumayer, Brandon P. van Zyl, David A. W. Hutchinson
Prime numbers are the building blocks of our arithmetic, however, their distribution still poses fundamental questions. Bernhard Riemann showed that the distribution of primes coul…
DeWitt-Schwinger Renormalization and Vacuum Polarization in d Dimensions
Robert T. Thompson, José P. S. Lemos
Calculation of the vacuum polarization, , and expectation value of the stress tensor, , has seen a recent resurgence, notably for black hole spacetimes. To d…
Incoherence of Bose-Einstein condensates at supersonic speeds due to quantum noise
R. G. Scott, D. A. W. Hutchinson
We calculate the effect of quantum noise in supersonic transport of Bose-Einstein condensates. When an obstacle obstructs the flow of atoms, quantum fluctuations cause atoms to be…
Dynamics and statistical mechanics of ultra-cold Bose gases using c-field techniques
P. B. Blakie, A. S. Bradley, M. J. Davis +2
We review phase space techniques based on the Wigner representation that provide an approximate description of dilute ultra-cold Bose gases. In this approach the quantum field evol…
Naturality of Rieffel's Morita equivalence for proper actions
Astrid an Huef, S. Kaliszewski, Iain Raeburn +1
Suppose that a locally compact group acts freely and properly on the right of a locally compact space . Rieffel proved that if is an action of on a -algebra …
Statistical mechanics of a Feshbach coupled Bose-Fermi gas in an optical lattice
O. Soe Sorensen, N. Nygaard, P. B. Blakie
We consider an atomic Fermi gas confined in a uniform optical lattice potential, where the atoms can pair into molecules via a magnetic field controlled narrow Feshbach resonance.…
Analysis of the Holzmann-Chevallier-Krauth theory for the trapped quasi-two-dimensional Bose gas
R. N. Bisset, D. Baillie, P. B. Blakie
We provide an in depth analysis of the theory proposed by Holzmann, Chevallier and Krauth (HCK) [Europhys. Lett., {\bf 82}, 30001 (2008)] for predicting the temperature at which th…
Dynamical thermalization and vortex formation in stirred 2D Bose-Einstein condensates
T. M. Wright, R. J. Ballagh, A. S. Bradley +2
We present a quantum mechanical treatment of the mechanical stirring of Bose-Einstein condensates using classical field techniques. In our approach the condensate and excited modes…
Spontaneous vortices in the formation of Bose-Einstein condensates
C. N. Weiler, T. W. Neely, D. R. Scherer +3
Phase transitions are ubiquitous in nature, ranging from protein folding and denaturisation, to the superconductor-insulator quantum phase transition, to the decoupling of forces i…
Analytic treatment of CRIB Quantum Memories for Light using Two-level Atoms
J. J. Longdell, G. Hétet, M. J. Sellars +1
It has recently been discovered that the optical analogue of a gradient echo in an optically thick material could form the basis of a optical memory that is both completely efficie…
On the applicability of constrained symplectic integrators in general relativity
J. Frauendiener
The purpose of this note is to point out that a naive application of symplectic integration schemes for Hamiltonian systems with constraints such as SHAKE or RATTLE which preserve…
Quasicondensation and coherence in the quasi-two-dimensional trapped Bose gas
R. N. Bisset, M. J. Davis, T. P. Simula +1
We simulate a trapped quasi-two-dimensional Bose gas using a classical field method. To interpret our results we identify the uniform Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) temperat…
Numerical method for evolving the Projected Gross-Pitaevskii equation
P. B. Blakie
In this paper we describe a method for evolving the projected Gross-Pitaevskii equation (PGPE) for a Bose gas in a harmonic oscillator potential. The central difficulty in solving…
Theory of correlations between ultra-cold bosons released from an optical lattice
E. Toth, A. M. Rey, P. B. Blakie
In this paper we develop a theoretical description of the correlations between ultra-cold bosons after free expansion from confinement in an optical lattice. We consider the system…
Multi-Modal Properties and Dynamics of the Gradient Echo Quantum Memory
G. Hétet, J. J. Longdell, M. J. Sellars +2
We investigate the properties of a recently proposed Gradient Echo Memory (GEM) scheme for information mapping between optical and atomic systems. We show that GEM can be described…
