Decay of super-currents in condensates in optical lattices
A. Polkovnikov, E. Altman, E. Demler +2
In this paper we discuss decay of superfluid currents in boson lattice systems due to quantum tunneling and thermal activation mechanisms. We derive asymptotic expressions for the…

Decay of a superfluid currents in a moving system of strongly interacting bosons
A. Polkovnikov, E. Altman, E. Demler +2
We analyze the stability and decay of supercurrents of strongly interacting bosons on optical lattices. At the mean field level, the system undergoes an irreversible dynamic phase…
