We study a many-body system of interacting spin-1 particles in the context of homogeneous gases of ultracold atoms. In general, its description requires eight parameters among which there are three components of magnetization and five parameters associated with quadrupole degrees of freedom. Based on the symmetry considerations, we construct a many-body interaction Hamiltonian that includes eight generators of the SU(3) group related to the above description parameters. The SU(3) symmetric Hamiltonian is applied to study the ferromagnetic and quadrupolar phases of a homogeneous weakly interacting gas of spin-1 atoms with Bose-Einstein condensate. It is shown how the quadrupole degrees of freedom entering the Hamiltonian modify the ground state and single-particle excitation spectra in comparison with those obtained from the Hamiltonian bilinear in spin operators and not including quadrupole degrees of freedom. We discuss the issue of taking into account the local character of interaction to obtain the correct spectra of single-particle excitations.

We report the direct observation of resistive flow through a weak link in a weakly interacting atomic Bose-Einstein condensate. Two weak links separate our ring-shaped superfluid atomtronic circuit into two distinct regions, a source and a drain. Mot ion of these weak links allows for creation of controlled flow between the source and the drain. At a critical value of the weak link velocity, we observe a transition from superfluid flow to superfluid plus resistive flow. Working in the hydrodynamic limit, we observe a conductivity that is 4 orders of magnitude larger than previously reported conductivities for a Bose-Einstein condensate with a tunnel junction. Good agreement with zero-temperature Gross-Pitaevskii simulations and a phenomenological model based on phase slips indicate that the creation of excitations plays an important role in the resulting conductivity. Our measurements of resistive flow elucidate the microscopic origin of the dissipation and pave the way for more complex atomtronic devices.
We investigate a Bose-Einstein condensate in strong interaction with a single impurity particle. While this situation has received considerable interest in recent years, the regime of strong coupling remained inaccessible to most approaches due to an instability in Bogoliubov theory arising near the resonance. We present a nonlocal extension of Gross-Pitaevskii theory that is free of such divergences and does not require the use of the Born approximation in any of the interaction potentials. We find a new dynamical transition regime between attractive and repulsive polarons, where an interaction quench results in a finite number of coherent oscillations in the density profiles of the medium and in the contact parameter before equilibrium is reached.
We have observed Bose-Einstein condensation of an atomic gas in the (quasi-)uniform three-dimensional potential of an optical box trap. Condensation is seen in the bimodal momentum distribution and the anisotropic time-of-flight expansion of the cond ensate. The critical temperature agrees with the theoretical prediction for a uniform Bose gas. The momentum distribution of our non-condensed quantum-degenerate gas is also clearly distinct from the conventional case of a harmonically trapped sample and close to the expected distribution in a uniform system. We confirm the coherence of our condensate in a matter-wave interference experiment. Our experiments open many new possibilities for fundamental studies of many-body physics.

We propose a generalized Mathieu equation (GME) which describes well the dynamics for two different models in spin-1 Bose-Einstein condensates. The stability chart of this GME differs significantly from that of Mathieus equation and the unstable dyna mics under this GME is called generalized parametric resonance. A typical region of $epsilon gtrsim 1$ and $delta approx 0.25$ can be used to distinguish these two equations. The GME we propose not only explains the experimental results of Hoang et al. [Nat. Commun. 7, 11233 (2016)] in nematic space with a small driving strength, but predicts the behavior in the regime of large driving strength. In addition, the model in spin space we propose, whose dynamics also obeys this GME, can be well-tuned such that it is easily implemented in experiments.
One of the excitements generated by the cold atom systems is the possibility to realize, and explore, varied topological phases stemming from multi-component nature of the condensate. Popular examples are the antiferromagnetic (AFM) and the ferromagn etic (FM) phases in the three-component atomic condensate with effective spin-1, to which different topological manifolds can be assigned. It follows, from consideration of homotopy, that different sorts of topological defects will be stable in each manifold. For instance, Skyrmionic texture is believed to be a stable topological object in two-dimensional AFM spin-1 condensate. Countering such common perceptions, here we show on the basis of a new wave function decomposition scheme that there is no physical parameter regime wherein the temporal dynamics of spin-1 condensate can be described solely within AFM or FM manifold. Initial state of definite topological number prepared entirely within one particular phase must immediately evolve into a mixed state. Accordingly, the very notion of topology and topological stability within the sub-manifold of AFM or FM become invalid. Numerical simulation reveals the linear Zeeman effect to be an efficient catalyst to extract the alternate component from an initial topological object prepared entirely within one particular sub-manifold, serving as a potential new tool for topology engineering in multi-component Bose-Einstein condensates.
