Correlation-enhanced interaction of a Bose-Einstein condensate with parametric magnon pairs and virtual magnons
Abstract
Nonlinear interactions are crucial in science and engineering. Here, we investigate wave interactions in a highly nonlinear magnetic system driven by parametric pumping leading to Bose--Einstein condensation of spin-wave quanta -- magnons. Using Brillouin light scattering spectroscopy in yttrium-iron garnet films, we found and identified a set of nonlinear processes resulting in off-resonant spin-wave excitations -- virtual magnons. In particular, we discovered a dynamically-strong, correlation-enhanced four-wave interaction process of the magnon condensate with pairs of parametric magnons having opposite wavevectors and fully correlated phases.
