Ferromagnetic phase transition and Bose-Einstein condensation in spinor Bose gases

Journal Article Gu, Qiang ; Klemm, Richard A - Physical Review. A

Phase transitions in spinor Bose gases with ferromagnetic (FM) couplings are studied via mean-field theory. We show that an infinitesimal value of the coupling can induce a FM phase transition at a finite temperature always above the critical temperature of Bose-Einstein condensation. This contrasts sharply with the case of Fermi gases, in which the Stoner coupling I{sub s} cannot lead to a FM phase transition unless it is larger than a threshold value I{sub 0}. The FM coupling also increases the critical temperatures of both the ferromagnetic transition and the Bose-Einstein condensation.

Quantum Phase Transitions and Continuous Observation of Spinor Dynamics in an Antiferromagnetic Condensate

Journal Article Liu, Y ; Jung, S ; Maxwell, S E ; ... - Physical Review Letters

Condensates of spin-1 sodium display rich spin dynamics due to the antiferromagnetic nature of the interactions in this system. We use Faraday rotation spectroscopy to make a continuous and minimally destructive measurement of the dynamics over multiple spin oscillations on a single evolving condensate. This method provides a sharp signature to locate a magnetically tuned separatrix in phase space which depends on the net magnetization. We also observe a phase transition from a two- to a three-component condensate at a low but finite temperature using a Stern-Gerlach imaging technique. This transition should be preserved as a zero-temperature quantum phase transition.

Population oscillation of the multicomponent spinor Bose-Einstein condensate induced by nonadiabatic transitions

Journal Article Xiuquan, Ma ; Lin, Xia ; Fang, Yang ; ... - Physical Review. A

The generation of the population oscillation of the multicomponent spinor Bose-Einstein condensate is demonstrated in this paper. We observe and examine the nonsynchronous decreasing processes of the magnetic fields generated between quadrupole coils and Ioffe coils during the switch-off of the quadrupole-Ioffe-configuration trap, which is considered to induce a nonadiabatic transition. Starting from the two-level Schroedinger equation, we have done some numerical fitting and derived an analytical expression identical to the results of Majorana and Zener, of which both results well match the experimental data.

First-order quantum phase transition driven by rotons in a gaseous Bose-Einstein condensate irradiated by a laser

Journal Article Minguzzi, A ; Tosi, M P ; March, N H ; ... - Physical Review. A

O'Dell et al. in recent work [Phys. Rev. Lett. 90, 110402 (2003)] have proposed that laser-induced dipole-dipole interactions may drive a gaseous Bose-Einstein condensate to an instability against a periodic density modulation. We discuss the possibility that the instability is preceded by a first-order quantum phase transition to a modulated state.

Quantum phase transition in a multicomponent Bose-Einstein condensate in optical lattices

Journal Article Guanghong, Chen ; Yongshi, Wu - Physical Review. A

We present a general lattice model for a multicomponent atomic Bose-Einstein system in an optical lattice. Using the model, we analytically study the quantum phase transition between the Mott insulator and a superfluid. A mean-field theory is developed from the Mott-insulator ground state. When the interspecies interactions are strong enough, the Mott insulator demonstrates the phase separation behavior. For weak interspecies interactions, the multispecies system is miscible. Finally, the phase diagram is discussed with emphasis on the role of interspecies interactions. The tip and the shape of the Mott insulator lobes do not depend on the interspecies interactions, but themore »« less
