It is predicted that in force microscopy the quantum fluctuations responsible for the Casimir force can be directly observed as temperature-independent force fluctuations having spectral density $9\pi/(40\ln(4/e)) \hbar \delta k$, where…
We examine the dynamics of a vortex dipole in the Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) of trapped dilute atomic gases at zero temperature in the presence of a Gaussian barrier potential. The density-anisotropy induced by the barrier enhances…
At zero temperature and strong applied magnetic fields the ground sate of an anisotropic antiferromagnet is a saturated paramagnet with fully aligned spins. We study the quantum phase transition as the field is reduced below an upper…
We monitor the time evolution of the temperature of phononic collective modes in a one-dimensional quasicondensate submitted to losses. At long times the ratio between the temperature and the energy scale $mc^2$, where $m$ is the atomic…
Indistinguishability of particles is a major factor destabilizing crystalline order in Bose systems. We describe this effect in terms of damped quasi-particle modes and in the dual language of Feynman paths, and illustrate it by…
The superfluidity of low-temperature bosons is well established in the collisional regime. In the collisionless regime, however, the presence of superfluidity is not yet fully clarified, in particular in lower spatial dimensions. Here we…
Degeneracy effects for bosons are more important for smaller particle mass, smaller temperature and higher number density. Bose condensation requires that particles be in the same lowest energy quantum state. We propose a cosmic background…
We study the Casimir effect for a three dimensional system of ideal free massive Bose gas in a slab geometry with Zaremba and anti-periodic boundary conditions. It is found that for these type of boundary conditions the resulting Casimir…
The Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) of photons has been realized in one- and two-dimensional systems. When considering the influence of finite-size effect, the condensation in the one-dimensional fibre is of special interest since such a…
We determine the feasibility of detecting analogue Hawking radiation in a Bose-Einstein condensate in the presence of atom loss induced heating. We find that phonons created by three-body losses overshadow those due to analogue Hawking…
We present an experimental apparatus that produces Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) of $^{87}$Rb atoms at a rate of 1 Hz. As a demonstration of the system's ability to operate continuously, 30 BECs were produced and imaged in 32.1 s.…
Bose-Einstein condensation, the macroscopic ground state accumulation of particles with integer spin (bosons) at low temperature and high density, has been observed in several physical systems, including cold atomic gases and solid state…
We study a gas of fermions undergoing a wide resonance s-wave BCS-BEC crossover, in the BEC regime at zero temperature. We calculate the chemical potential and the speed of sound of this Bose-condensed gas, as well as the condensate…
Recent theoretical and experimental work on solid He-4 has focused on vacancies, or other lattice defects and whether these can form a Bose-Einstein condensate within the solid. The earliest suggestion that this could happen was based on…
We describe the properties of a mixture of fermionic and bosonic atoms, as they are tuned across a Feshbach resonance associated with a fermionic molecular state. Provided the number of fermionic atoms exceeds the number of bosonic atoms,…
A quantitative study of the field-induced magnetic ordering in TlCuCl$_3$ in terms of a Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) of magnons is presented. It is shown that the hitherto proposed simple BEC scenario is in quantitative and qualitative…
The lateral Casimir-Polder force between an atom and a corrugated surface should allow one to study experimentally non trivial geometrical effects in quantum vacuum. Here, we derive the theoretical expression of this force in a scattering…
Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) is considered under conditions of Feshbach resonance in two-atom collisions due to a coupling of atomic pair and resonant molecular states. The association of condensate atoms can form a molecular BEC, and the…
We investigate a computational device that harnesses the effects of Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) to accelerate the speed of finding the solution of a given optimization problem. Many computationally difficult problems, including…
By recognizing the vital importance of two-hole Cooper pairs (CPs) in addition to the usual two-electron ones in a strongly-interacting many-electron system, the concept of CPs was re-examined with striking conclusions. Based on this,…
