Collapse times of dipolar Bose-Einstein condensates
C. Ticknor, N. G. Parker, A. Melatos +3
We investigate the time taken for global collapse by a dipolar Bose-Einstein condensate. Two semi-analytical approaches and exact numerical integration of the mean-field dynamics a…
Collisions of bright solitary matter waves
N. G. Parker, A. M. Martin, S. L. Cornish +1
The collisions of three-dimensional bright solitary matter waves formed from atomic Bose-Einstein condensates are shown to exhibit rich behaviour. Collisions range from being elast…
Magnetic trapping of a cold Rb-Cs atomic mixture
M. L. Harris, P. Tierney, S. L. Cornish
We present an apparatus for the study of an ultracold gaseous atomic mixture of 133Cs and 87Rb. The mixture is prepared using a double magneto-optical trap (MOT) system in which a…
Bright solitary waves and trapped solutions in Bose-Einstein condensates with attractive interactions
N. G. Parker, S. L. Cornish, C. S. Adams +1
We analyse the static solutions of attractive Bose-Einstein condensates under transverse confinement, both with and without axial confinement. By full numerical solution of the Gro…
Collisions between solitary waves of three-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensates
N. G. Parker, A. M. Martin, S. L. Cornish +1
We study bright solitary waves of three dimensional trapped Bose-Einstein condensates and their collisions. For a single solitary wave, in addition to an upper critical number, we…
Formation of bright matter-wave solitons during the collapse of Bose-Einstein condensates
Simon L. Cornish, Sarah T. Thompson, Carl E. Wieman
We observe bright matter-wave solitons form during the collapse of 85Rb condensates in a three-dimensional magnetic trap. The collapse is induced by using a Feshbach resonance to s…
