We consider an ultracold bosonic binary mixture confined in a one-dimensional double-well trap. The two bosonic components are assumed to be two hyperfine internal states of the same atom. We suppose that these two components are spin-orbit…

We study the quench dynamics of a Bose-Einstein condensate under a Raman-assisted synthetic spin-orbit coupling. To model the dynamical process, we adopt a self-consistent Bogoliubov approach, which is equivalent to applying the…

The formation of a dense Bose-Einstein condensate in dark spin states of two-dimensional dipolar excitons is shown to be driven by a dynamical transition to the long-lived dark states. The condensate is stabilized by strong dipole-dipole…

Spin-orbit-coupled Bose-Einstein condensates are a flexible experimental platform to engineer synthetic quantum many-body systems. In particular, they host the so-called stripe phase, an instance of a supersolid state of matter. The…

We investigate the parametric amplification of the zero-point fluctuations in the spin modes of a two-component Bose-Einstein condensate, triggered by the dynamical evolution of the condensate density. We first make use of a Thomas-Fermi…

We study two-dimensional systems of interacting excitons with a moat dispersion, for which the ground-state energy manifold presents a ring of discrete or continuously degenerate minima around a single point in momentum space. At low…
