It is a common view that rotational motion in a superfluid can exist only in the presence of quantized vortices. However, in our numerical studies on the merging of two concentric Bose-Einstein condensates with axial symmetry in…
Merging of isolated Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) is an important topic due to its relevance to matter-wave interferometry and the Kibble-Zurek mechanism. Many past research focused on merging of BECs with uniform initial phases. In our…
Turbulence enhances momentum transport in classical fluids, effectively increasing their viscosity. We investigate an analogous effect in a superfluid by measuring the damping of collective oscillations in an atomic Bose-Einstein condensate…
The interplay between matter particles and gauge fields in physical spaces with nontrivial geometries can lead to novel topological quantum matter. However, detailed microscopic mechanisms are often obscure, and unconventional spaces are…
We theoretically investigate spin transfer between a system of quasiequilibrated Bose-Einstein condensed magnons in an insulator in direct contact with a conductor. While charge transfer is prohibited across the interface, spin transport…
We model propagation of far-red-detuned optical vortex beams through a Bose-Einstein Condensate using nonlinear Schr\"odinger and Gross-Pitaevskii equations. We show the formation of coupled light/atomic solitons that rotate azimuthally…
In this paper, we have formulated a theory for the microscopic interaction of the asymmetric Laguerre-Gaussian (aLG) beam with the atomic Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) in a harmonic trap. Here the asymmetry is introduced to an LG beam…
We study the real-time dynamics of vortex lines in a large elongated Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) of sodium atoms using a stroboscopic technique. Vortices are spontaneously produced via the Kibble-Zurek mechanism in a quench across the…
Atomic superfluids formed using Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) in a ring trap are currently being investigated in the context of superfluid hydrodynamics, quantum sensing and matter-wave interferometry. The characterization of the…
We report on the experimental observation of classical Brownian motion in momentum space by a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) of Rubidium atoms prepared in a hexagonal optical lattice. Upon suddenly increasing the effective atomic mass, the…
In a harmonically-trapped rotating Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC), a vortex of large angular momentum decays to multiple vortices of unit angular momentum from an energetic consideration. We demonstrate the formation of a robust and…
We analyze, analytically and numerically, the position, momentum, and in particular the angular-momentum variance of a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) trapped in a two-dimensional anisotropic trap for static and dynamic scenarios. The…
We discuss the rotational cooling of diatomic molecules in a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) of ultra-cold atoms by emission of phonons with orbital angular momentum. Despite the superfluidity of the BEC there is no frictionless rotation for…
The recent report on the realization of a Bose-Einstein condensate of G-wave molecule made up of bound pairs of Cesium bosons is a surprise. These molecules are created at the G-wave resonance at 19.87G, where the severe three-body loss…
The term supercurrent relates to a macroscopic dissipation-free collective motion of a quantum condensate and is commonly associated with such famous low-temperature phenomena as superconductivity and superfluidity. Another type of motion…
We consider a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) of $N$ atoms of repulsive interaction $\sim U_0$, in an elliptical trap, axially pierced by a Gaussian-intensity laser beam, forming an effective (quasi-2D) toroidal trap with minimum at radial…
We theoretically investigate an annularly confined Bose-Einstein Condensate (BEC) coupled to a four-mirror ring cavity supporting traveling-wave optical modes. Under symmetric driving by counter-propagating Laguerre-Gaussian beams carrying…
Motivated by recent experimental realization of a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) of dipolar molecules, we develop superfluid transport theory for a dissipative BEC to show that a weak uniform two-body loss can induce phase rigidity, leading…
Single particle states in the atomic trap employing the rotating magnetic field are found using the full time-dependent instantaneous trapping potential. These states are compared with those of the effective time-averaged potential. We show…
The processes of merging and splitting dilute-gas Bose-Einstein condensates are studied in the nonadiabatic, high-density regime. Rich dynamics are found. Depending on the experimental parameters, uniform soliton trains containing more than…
