Splitting between quadrupole modes of dilute quantum gas in a two dimensional anisotropic trap

We consider quadrupole excitations of quasi-two dimensional interacting quantum gas in an anisotropic harmonic oscillator potential at zero temperature. Using the time-dependent variational approach, we calculate a few low-lying collective excitation frequencies of a two dimensional anisotropic Bose gas. Within the energy weighted sum-rule approach, we derive a general dispersion relation of two quadrupole excitations of a two dimensional deformed trapped quantum gas. This dispersion relation is valid for both statistics. We show that the quadrupole excitation frequencies obtained from both methods are exactly the same. Using this general dispersion relation, we also calculate the quadrupole frequencies of a two dimensional unpolarized Fermi gas in an anisotropic trap. For both cases, we obtain analytic expressions for the quadrupole frequencies and the splitting between them for arbitrary value of trap deformation. This splitting decreases with increasing interaction strength for both statistics. For two dimensional anisotropic Fermi gas, the two quadrupole frequencies and the splitting between them become independent of the particle number within the Thomas-Fermi approach.

Dynamic instability of a rotating Bose-Einstein condensate

We consider a Bose-Einstein condensate subject to a rotating harmonic potential, in connection with recent experiments leading to the formation of vortices. We use the classical hydrodynamic approximation to the non-linear Schrödinger equation to determine almost analytically the evolution of the condensate. We predict that this evolution can exhibit dynamical instabilities, for the stirring procedure previously demonstrated at ENS and for a new stirring procedure that we put forward. These instabilities take place within the range of stirring frequency and amplitude for which vortices are produced experimentally. They provide therefore an initiating mechanism for vortex nucleation.

Twocomponent Fermi vapour in a 2D rotating trap

An exactly solvable model of two-component interacting Fermi vapour in two dimension within Thomas Fermi approach has been proposed. We assume a realistic off-diagonal s-wave interaction between fermions in the two hyperfine states. The interaction is taken to be given by a screened Coulomb interaction which is both relevant and is analytically tractable. There are two distinct limits in the case of trapped fermionic systems: When the rotating frequency is less than the trap frequency a Thomas-Fermi approach may be used for a reasonably large number of particles. In the case of rapidly rotating fermions, an alternative variational approach is used, where the local density approximation may be applied after projecting the system on to the lowest degenerate level. Analytic expressions for the relevant physical quantities are obtained and their significance is discussed in both these cases.

Rotating fermions in two dimensions: Thomas Fermi approach

Properties of confined mesoscopic systems have been extensively studied numerically over recent years. We discuss an analytical approach to the study of finite rotating fermionic systems in two dimension. We first construct the energy functional for a finite fermionic system within the Thomas-Fermi approximation in two dimensions. We show that for specific interactions the problem may be exactly solved. We derive analytical expressions for the density, the critical size as well as the ground state energy of such systems in a given angular momentum sector.

Edge magnetoplasmon excitations in a Quantum Dot in high magnetic fields

We investigate the collective magnetoplasmon excitations in a quantum dot containing finite number of electrons in the high magnetic field limit. We consider the electrons in the lowest Landau level and neglect mixing between the higher Landau levels. The dispersion relation of these edge modes are estimated following the energy weighted sum-rule approach. In this finite size system the edge magnetoplasmon modes have different multipolarities (or angular momemtum l). Their dependence on the magnetic field and on the system size is investigated. With increasing magnetic field, energy of these collective modes decreases and in the bulk limit they become gapless. We also consider the breathing mode of a dot in the presence of a strong magnetic field, and the energy of this mode approaches the cyclotron frequency $\hbar ω_{c}$.

Collective excitations in Quantum Dot

We investigate different types of collective excitations in a quantum dot containing finite number of electrons at zero magnetic field. To estimate the excitation energies analytically we follow the energy weighted sum-rule approach. We consider the most general multipole excitation with angular momentum l, and the breathing mode excitation (monopole excitation) of a large quantum dot, for three different types of effective electron-electron interaction. These are the logarithmic interaction, the short range pseudopotential and the coulomb interaction. The ground state density of the many-body system is calculated within Thomas-Fermi approximation. The analytical results for the collective excitation energies and their dependence on the system size and other external parameters are discussed in detail.

Quantum corrections to the thermodynamic potential of interacting Bosons in a trap

We calculate the quantum corrections of the thermodynamic quantities of a system of confined Bosons at finite temperature. Systematically quantum corrections are written in a series of $\hbar$, which is convergent when $kT$ is much larger than the spacing between energy levels of the system. We apply this method to calculate analytically the thermodynamic potential of a weakly interacting Bose-gas confined in 3-d harmonic oscillator potential. For large number of particles, quantum corrections become small, and contribute to the finite size corrections to scaling.
