Acceleration of quasi-particle modes in Bose-Einstein condensates

Statistical Mechanics 2009-10-31 v1

Abstract

We analytically examine the dynamics of quasi-particle modes occuring in a Bose-Einstein condensate which is subject to a weak acceleration. It is shown that the momentum of a quasi-particle mode is squeezed rather than accelerated.
