Skyrmions in spinor Bose-Einstein condensates
H. T. C. Stoof
We show that spinor Bose-Einstein condensates not only have line-like vortex excitations, but in general also allow for point-like topological excitations, i.e., skyrmions. We disc…
Field theory for trapped atomic gases
H. T. C. Stoof
In this course we give a selfcontained introduction to the quantum field theory for trapped atomic gases, using functional methods throughout. We consider both equilibrium and none…
Quantum kinetic theory of trapped atomic gases
H. T. C. Stoof
We present a general framework in which we can accurately describe the non-equilibrium dynamics of trapped atomic gases. This is achieved by deriving a single Fokker-Planck equatio…
Condensed matter physics with trapped atomic Fermi gases
H. T. C. Stoof, M. Houbiers
We present an overview of the various phase transitions that we anticipate to occur in trapped fermionic alkali gases. We also discuss the prospects of observing these transitions…
