We consider a multicomponent atomic Bose-Einstein condensate optically trapped in a far-off resonant dipole trap. Drawing an analogy with the optical situation, we show that this system can be regarded as an matter-wave analog of optical…
A photonic circuit is generally described as a structure in which light propagates by unitary exchange and transfers reversibly between channels. In contrast, the term `diffusive' is more akin to a chaotic propagation in scattering media,…
