The Josephson oscillations between condensates in a double-well trap are known theoretically to be strongly effected by the mean field interaction in dilute atomic gases. The most important effect is that the amplitude of oscillation in the…

We propose an experiment that would demonstrate nonlinear Josephson-type oscillations in the relative population of a driven, two-component Bose-Einstein condensate. An initial state is prepared in which two condensates exist in a magnetic…
