We investigate the effects of a movable mirror (cantilever) of an optical cavity on the superradiant light scattering from a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) in an optical lattice. We show that the mirror motion has a dynamic dispersive…
We show that a Bose-Einstein condensate emits atoms, if either the condensate wave function, or the scattering length of the atoms depends strongly on time. Moreover, the emission process is coherent and atoms can oscillate back and forth…
It is shown that, through a super-radiant Rayleigh scattering, a strong far off-resonant pump laser applied to a Bose-Einstein condensates(BEC) can induce a non-demolition coupling of the many-mode quantized vacuum field to the BEC. This…

We consider the effects of finite temperature on the scattering of impurity atoms in a BoseEinstein condensate, showing that the scattering rate is enhanced by the thermal atoms. Collisions can increase or decrease the impurity energy.…
We consider a quasi two-dimensional atomic Bose Einstein condensate interacting with a near-resonant laser field that is back-reflected onto the condensate by a planar mirror. We show that this single-mirror optical feedback leads to an…

We study phase diffusion in a Bose-Einstein condensate of light in a dye-filled optical microcavity, i.e., the spreading of the probability distribution for the condensate phase. To observe this phenomenon, we propose an interference…
We describe a controllable and precise laser tweezers for Bose-Einstein condensates of ultracold atomic gases. In our configuration, a laser beam is used to locally modify the sign of the scattering length in the vicinity of a trapped BEC.…
We show that many features of the recent experiments of Schneble et al. [D. Schneble, Y. Torii, M. Boyd, E.W. Streed, D.E. Pritchard and W. Ketterle, Science vol. 300, p. 475 (2003)], which demonstrate two different regimes of light…
When a jet collides coherently with many parton scatterers at very high energies, the Bose-Einstein symmetry with respect to the interchange of the virtual bosons leads to a destructive interference of the Feynman amplitudes in most regions…
We analyze the scattering of bright solitons in dipolar Bose-Einstein condensates placed in unconnected layers. Whereas for short-range interactions unconnected layers are independent, a remarkable consequence of the dipole interaction is…
Periodic driving of optical lattices has enabled the creation of novel bandstructures not realizable in static lattice systems, such as topological bands for neutral particles. However, especially driven systems of interacting bosonic…
Dynamics of fluctuations in unstable Bose-Einstein condensates is analyzed by the solution of approximate operator equations. In the case of a condensate with a negative scattering length the present treatment describes a delay of collapse,…
