Low lying twisting and acoustic modes of a rotating Bose-Einstein condensate

arXiv:cond-mat/0511547 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.73.041604

Abstract

We present a calculation of the low lying spectrum of a rotating Bose-Einstein condensate. We show that in a cylindrical geometry, there exist two linear branches, one associated to usual acoustic excitation, the other corresponding to a twisting mode of the vortex lattice. Using a hydrodynamical approach we derive the elasticity coefficient of the vortex lattice and calculate the spectrum of condensate in a three dimensionnal harmonic trap with cylindrical symmetry.
