Effect of interactions on the localization of a Bose-Einstein condensate in a quasi-periodic lattice
J. E. Lye, L. Fallani, C. Fort +4
The transport properties of a Bose-Einstein condensate in a 1D incommensurate bichromatic lattice are investigated both theoretically and experimentally. We observe a blockage of t…
A Bose-Einstein condensate in a random potential
J. E. Lye, L. Fallani, M. Modugno +3
An optical speckle potential is used to investigate the static and dynamic properties of a Bose-Einstein condensate in the presence of disorder. For strong disorder the condensate…
Role of transverse excitations in the instability of Bose-Einstein condensates moving in optical lattices
M. Modugno, C. Tozzo, F. Dalfovo
The occurrence of energetic and dynamical instabilities in a Bose-Einstein condensate moving in a one-dimensional (1D) optical lattice is analyzed by means of the Gross-Pitaevskii…
Observation of dynamical instability for a Bose-Einstein condensate in a moving 1D optical lattice
L. Fallani, L. De Sarlo, J. E. Lye +4
We have experimentally studied the unstable dynamics of a harmonically trapped Bose-Einstein condensate loaded into a 1D moving optical lattice. The lifetime of the condensate in s…
Mean-field analysis of the stability of a K-Rb Fermi-Bose mixture
M. Modugno, F. Ferlaino, F. Riboli +3
We compare the experimental stability diagram of a Fermi-Bose mixture of K-40 and Rb-87 atoms with attractive interaction to the predictions of a mean-field theoretical model. We d…
