Quantum phase transitions, transitions between many-body ground states, are of extensive interest in research ranging from condensed matter physics to cosmology. Key features of the phase transitions include a stage with rapidly growing new…
Fundamental theories and models of many-body physics can be probed in experiments on ultracold atoms held in place by electromagnetic fields. In particular, of considerable interest are systems under curved confinement, since they can yield…
Within a cavity quantum electrodynamics description, we characterize the fluorescent spectrum from ultracold bosons atoms, in the second harmonic generation (SHG) and resonant cases. Two situations are considered: i) bosons loaded into an…
We calculate the spectrum of low-lying collective excitations in a gaseous cloud formed by a Bose-Einstein condensate and a spin-polarized Fermi gas over a range of the boson-fermion coupling strength extending from strongly repulsive to…
Cold atomic gases have become a paradigmatic system for exploring fundamental physics, which at the same time allows for applications in quantum technologies. The accelerating developments in the field have led to a highly advanced set of…
Confinement can have a considerable effect on the behavior of particle systems, and is therefore an effective way to discover new phenomena. A notable example is a system of identical bosons at low temperature under an external field…
The dynamical evolution of an inhomogeneous ultracold atomic gas quenched at different controllable rates through the Bose-Einstein condensation phase transition is studied numerically in the premise of a recent experiment in an anisotropic…
In a recent experiment [Vochezer {\it et al.,} Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{120}, 073602 (2018)], a novel kind of hybrid atom-opto-mechanical system has been realized by coupling atoms in a lattice to a membrane. While such system promises a…
We investigate the form and stability of a cloud of atoms confined in a harmonic trap when the scattering length is negative. We find that, besides the known low density metastable solution, a new branch of Bose condensate appears at higher…
Water freezes into ice, atomic spins spontaneously align in a magnet, liquid helium becomes superfluid: Phase transitions are dramatic phenomena. However, despite the drastic change in the system's behaviour, observing the transition can…
Considerable progress in experimental studies of atomic gases in a toroidal geometry has opened up novel prospects for the investigation of fundamental properties of superfluid states and creation of new configurations for atomtronic…
The out-of-equilibrium quantum dynamics of an interacting Bose gas trapped in a 1D asymmetric double-well potential is studied by solving the many-body Schr\"odinger equation numerically accurately. We examine how the loss of symmetry of…
Spontaneous synchronization between coupled periodic systems occur in a wealth of classical physical setups. Here, we show theoretically that the phase of two distinct quantum harmonic oscillators spontaneously when they are strongly…
The relative phase of two initially independent Bose-Einstein condensates can be laser cooled to unite the two condensates by putting them into a ring cavity and coupling them with an internal Josephson junction. First, we show that this…
We study the Josephson effect between atomic Bose-Einstein condensates. By drawing on an electrostatic analogy, we derive a semiclassical functional expression for the three-dimensional Josephson coupling energy in terms of the condensate…
The mean-field approach to two-site Bose-Hubbard systems is well established and leads to nonlinear classical equations of motion for the population imbalance and the phase difference. It can, e.g., be based on the representation of the…
The probabilistic character of the measurement process is one of the most puzzling and fascinating aspects of quantum mechanics. In many-body systems quantum mechanical noise reveals non-local correlations of the underlying many-body…
Many-body localization for a system of bosons trapped in a one dimensional lattice is discussed. Two models that may be realized for cold atoms in optical lattices are considered. The model with a random on-site potential is compared with…
Ultracold bosons in optical lattices are one of the few systems where bosonic matter is known to exhibit strong correlations. Here we push the frontier of our understanding of interacting bosons in optical lattices by adding synthetic…
The capability to reach ultracold atomic temperatures in compact instruments has recently been extended into space. Ultracold temperatures amplify quantum effects, while free-fall allows further cooling and longer interactions time with…
