Interaction between gravitational waves and trapped Bose-Einstein condensates
arXiv:2411.15874 · doi:10.3390/physics6040081
Abstract
Inspired by recent proposals for detecting gravitational waves by using Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs), we investigate the interplay between these two phenomena. A gravitational wave induces a phase shift in the fidelity amplitude of the many-body quantum state. We study the enhancement of the phase shift in the case of Bose condensates confined by an anisotropic harmonic potential, considering both ideal and interacting BEC.
