Variational methods with coupled Gaussian functions for Bose-Einstein condensates with long-range interactions. II. Applications
Stefan Rau, Jörg Main, Holger Cartarius +2
Bose-Einstein condensates with an attractive 1/r interaction and with dipole-dipole interaction are investigated in the framework of the Gaussian variational ansatz introduced by S…

Variational methods with coupled Gaussian functions for Bose-Einstein condensates with long-range interactions. I. General concept
Stefan Rau, Jörg Main, Günter Wunner
The variational method of coupled Gaussian functions is applied to Bose-Einstein condensates with long-range interactions. The time-dependence of the condensate is described by dyn…

Pitchfork bifurcations in blood-cell shaped dipolar Bose-Einstein condensates
Stefan Rau, Jörg Main, Patrick Köberle +1
We demonstrate that the method of coupled Gaussian wave packets is a full-fledged alternative to direct numerical solutions of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation of condensates with ele…
