Insights from intracules and Coulomb holes

We point out that a typical two-electron distribution function in atoms and molecules often called the intracule depends sensitively on the electron-electron repulsion which leads to the so-called Coulomb correlation. The difference between the intracule densities computed by using the correlated and uncorrelated wave functions has been given the name Coulomb hole. Studies in intracule densities and Coulomb holes form a subject of considerable current interest. We make use of a three-parameter correlated wave function and its uncorrelated limit to study the properties of intracules and Coulomb holes in $He$, $Li^+$, $Be^{2+}$ and $Ne^{8+}$ and thus provide a transparent physical picture for the interplay between the electron-nucleus attraction and electron-electron repulsion in forming Coulomb holes around electrons in atoms of different $Z$ values.

On the information entropy of matter-waves in quasi-disorder potentials

We consider ultracold Bose gases in quasi-random potentials and quantify localization of matter waves by means of Shannon information entropy. We explicitly examine the role of quasi-random potentials in producing localized states in the linear and nonlinear regimes. It is seen that the information entropic-based approach can be more useful to quantify localization of different types of states observed in Bose-Einstein condensates.

Shannon entropies and Fisher information of K-shell electrons of neutral atoms

We represent the two K-shell electrons of neutral atoms by Hylleraas-type wave function which fulfils the exact behavior at the electron-electron and electron-nucleus coalescence points and, derive a simple method to construct expressions for single-particle position- and momentum-space charge densities, $ρ(\vec{r})$ and $γ(\vec{p})$ respectively. We make use of the results for $ρ(\vec{r})$ and $γ(\vec{p})$ to critically examine the effect of correlation on bare (uncorrelated) values of Shannon information entropies ($S$) and of Fisher information ($F$) for the K-shell electrons of atoms from helium to neon. Due to inter-electronic repulsion the values of the uncorrelated Shannon position-space entropies are augmented while those of the momentum-space entropies are reduced. The corresponding Fisher information are found to exhibit opposite behavior in respect of this. Attempts are made to provide some plausible explanation for the observed response of $S$ and $F$ to electronic correlation.

Split and overlapped binary solitons in optical lattices

We analyze the energetic and dynamical properties of bright-bright (BB) soliton pairs in a binary mixture of Bose-Einstein condensates subjected to the action of a combined optical lattice, acting as an external potential for the first species, while modulating the intraspecies coupling constant of the second. In particular, we use a variational approach and direct numerical integrations to investigate the existence and stability of BB solitons in which the two species are either spatially separated (split soliton) or located at the same optical lattice site (overlapped soliton). The dependence of these solitons on the interspecies interaction parameter is explicitly investigated. For repulsive interspecies interaction we show the existence of a series of critical values at which transitions from an initially overlapped soliton to split solitons occur. For attractive interspecies interaction only single direct transitions from split to overlapped BB solitons are found. The possibility to use split solitons for indirect measurements of scattering lengths is also suggested.

Typical observables in a two-mode Bose system

A class of k-particle observables in a two-mode system of Bose particles is characterized by typicality: if the state of the system is sampled out of a suitable ensemble, an experimental measurement of that observable yields (almost) always the same result. We investigate the general features of typical observables, the criteria to determine typicality and finally focus on the case of density correlation functions, which are related to spatial distribution of particles and interference.

Phase randomization and typicality in the interference of two condensates

Interference is observed when two independent Bose-Einstein condensates expand and overlap. This phenomenon is typical, in the sense that the overwhelming majority of wave functions of the condensates, uniformly sampled out of a suitable portion of the total Hilbert space, display interference with maximal visibility. We focus here on the phases of the condensates and their (pseudo) randomization, which naturally emerges when two-body scattering processes are considered. Relationship to typicality is discussed and analyzed.

Displaced dynamics of binary mixtures in linear and nonlinear optical lattices

The dynamical behavior of matter wave solitons of two-component Bose-Einstein condensates (BEC) in combined linear and nonlinear optical lattices (OLs) is investigated. In particular, the dependence of the frequency of the oscillating dynamics resulting from initially slightly displaced components is investigated both analytically, by means of a variational effective potential approach for the reduced collective coordinate dynamics of the soliton, and numerically, by direct integrations of the mean field equations of the BEC mixture. We show that for small initial displacements binary solitons can be viewed as point masses connected by elastic springs of strengths related to the amplitude of the OL and to the intra and inter-species interactions. Analytical expressions of symmetric and anti-symmetric mode frequencies, are derived and occurrence of beatings phenomena in the displaced dynamics is predicted. These expressions are shown to give a very good estimation of the oscillation frequencies for different values of the intra-species interatomic scattering length, as confirmed by direct numerical integrations of the mean field Gross-Pitaevskii equations (GPE) of the mixture. The possibility to use displaced dynamics for indirect measurements of BEC mixture characteristics such as number of atoms and interatomic interactions is also suggested.

Effects of spatially inhomogeneous atomic interactions on Bose-Einstein condensates in optical lattices

An interplay of optical lattices and nonlinear impurities in controlling the dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensate bright solitons is investigated using effective potential approach. The ability of pushing the solitons into or away from the impurity region by changing both lattice and impurity parameters is suggested. A possibility for the existence of stable fundamental gap solitons, which appear to satisfy an inverted Vakhitov-Kolokolov criterion, is examined.
