Dynamics and kinetics of quasiparticle decay in a nearly-one-dimensional degenerate Bose gas
arXiv:1102.3934 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.83.043625
Abstract
We consider decay of a quasiparticle in a nearly-one-dimensional quasicondensate of trapped atoms, where virtual excitations of transverse modes break down one-dimensionality and integrability, giving rise to effective three-body elastic collisions. We calculate the matrix element for the process that involves one incoming quasiparticle and three outgoing quasiparticles. Scattering that involves low-frequency modes with high thermal population results in a diffusive dynamics of a bunch of quasiparticles created in the system.
