Excitation spectroscopy of vortex states in dilute Bose-condensed gases

arXiv:cond-mat/9610093 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.56.587

Abstract

We apply linear-response analysis to the Gross-Pitaevskii equation to obtain the excitation frequencies of a Bose-Einstein condensate in a vortex state, and apply it to a system of Rubidium atoms confined in a time-averaged orbiting potential trap. The excitation frequencies of a vortex differ significantly from those of the ground state, and may therefore be used to obtain a spectroscopic signature of the presence of a vortex state.
