Dynamical Equilibration Across a Quenched Phase Transition in a Trapped Quantum Gas
I. -K. Liu, S. Donadello, G. Lamporesi +4
The formation of an equilibrium quantum state from an uncorrelated thermal one through the dynamical crossing of a phase transition is a central question of non-equilibrium many-bo…
Creation and counting of defects in a temperature quenched Bose-Einstein Condensate
Simone Donadello, Simone Serafini, Tom Bienaimé +3
We study the spontaneous formation of defects in the order parameter of a trapped ultracold bosonic gas while crossing the critical temperature for Bose-Einstein Condensation (BEC)…
Dynamics and interaction of vortex lines in an elongated Bose-Einstein condensate
Simone Serafini, Matteo Barbiero, Michele Debortoli +5
We study the real-time dynamics of vortex lines in a large elongated Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) of sodium atoms using a stroboscopic technique. Vortices are spontaneously produ…
Solitonic Vortices in Bose-Einstein Condensates
Marek Tylutki, Simone Donadello, Simone Serafini +4
We analyse, theoretically and experimentally, the nature of solitonic vortices (SV) in an elongated Bose-Einstein condensate. In the experiment, such defects are created via the Ki…
Observation of Solitonic Vortices in Bose-Einstein Condensates
Simone Donadello, Simone Serafini, Marek Tylutki +4
We observe solitonic vortices in an atomic Bose-Einstein condensate after free expansion. Clear signatures of the nature of such defects are the twisted planar density depletion ar…
Spontaneous creation of Kibble-Zurek solitons in a Bose-Einstein condensate
Giacomo Lamporesi, Simone Donadello, Simone Serafini +2
When a system crosses a second-order phase transition on a finite timescale, spontaneous symmetry breaking can cause the development of domains with independent order parameters, w…
A compact high-flux source of cold sodium atoms
G. Lamporesi, S. Donadello, S. Serafini +1
We present a compact source of cold sodium atoms suitable for the production of quantum degenerate gases and versatile for a multi-species experiment. The magnetic field produced b…
