  • Elementary Excitations of a bose einstein condensate in an effective magnetic field
    Physical Review A, 2007
    Co-Authors: D R Murray, Patrik Ohberg, Stephen M Barnett, Damia Gomila
    Abstract:

    We calculate the low-energy Elementary Excitations of a Bose-Einstein condensate in an effective magnetic field. The field is created by the interplay between light beams carrying orbital angular momentum and the trapped atoms [G. Juzelinas et al., Phys. Rev. A 71, 053614 (2005)]. We examine the role of the homogeneous magnetic field, familiar from studies of rotating condensates, and also investigate spectra for vector potentials with a more general radial dependence. We discuss the instabilities which arise and how these may be manifested.

  • theory of Elementary Excitations in unstable bose einstein condensates
    Physical Review A, 2003
    Co-Authors: Ulf Leonhardt, Tamas Kiss, Patrik Ohberg
    Abstract:

    Like classical fluids, quantum gases may suffer from hydrodynamic instabilities. Our paper develops a quantum version of the classical stability analysis in fluids, the Bogoliubov theory of Elementary Excitations in unstable Bose-Einstein condensates. In unstable condensates the excitation modes have complex frequencies. We derive the normalization conditions for unstable modes such that they can serve in a mode decomposition of the noncondensed component. Furthermore, we develop approximative techniques to determine the spectrum and the mode functions. Finally, we apply our theory to sonic horizons - sonic black and white holes. For sonic white holes the spectrum of unstable modes turns out to be intrinsically discrete, whereas black holes may be stable.

  • Elementary Excitations in the symmetric spin-orbital model
    Jetp Letters, 2014
    Co-Authors: M. Yu. Kagan, K. I. Kugel, A. V. Mikheyenkov, A. F. Barabanov
    Abstract:

    Possible types of Elementary Excitations in the symmetric spin-orbital model on a square lattice are analyzed using a spherically symmetric self-consistent approach. The excitation spectra are calculated. The behavior of the corresponding correlation functions depending on the temperature and parameters of the model is studied. A schematic phase diagram is plotted. It is shown that the thermodynamics of the system is mainly determined by Elementary Excitations with the entangled spin and orbital degrees of freedom.

  • Elementary Excitations in the coupled spin-orbital model
    Physical Review B, 1998
    Co-Authors: J. Van Den Brink, W. Stekelenburg, D. I. Khomskii, G.a Sawatzky, K. I. Kugel
    Abstract:

    The Elementary Excitations of a model Hamiltonian that captures the low-energy behavior of a simple twofold-degenerate Hubbard Hamiltonian, with Hund’s rule coupling, is studied. The phase diagram in the mean-field limit and in a two-site approach reveals a rich variety of phases where both the orbital and the spin degrees of freedom are ordered. We show that, besides the usual spin waves ~magnons!, there also exist orbital waves ~orbitons! and, most interestingly, in a completely ferromagnetically coupled system, a combined spinorbital excitation which can be visualized as a bound state of magnons and orbitons. For a completely degenerate system the bound states are found to be the lowest-lying Elementary Excitations, both in one and two dimensions. Finally we extend our treatment to almost-degenerate systems. This can serve as an example that Elementary Excitations in orbitally degenerate strongly correlated electron systems in general carry both spin and orbital character. @S0163-1829~98!10839-1#

  • Elementary Excitations of the Symmetric Spin-Orbital Model: The XY Limit
    Physical Review Letters, 1999
    Co-Authors: Frédéric Mila, Beat Frischmuth, Andreas Deppeler, Matthias Troyer
    Abstract:

    The Elementary Excitations of the 1D, symmetric, spin-orbital model are investigated by studying two anisotropic versions of the model, the pure XY and the dimerized XXZ case, with analytical and numerical methods. While they preserve the symmetry between spin and orbital degrees of freedom, these models allow for a simple and transparent picture of the low--lying Excitations: In the pure XY case, a phase separation takes place between two phases with free--fermion like, gapless Excitations, while in the dimerized case, the low-energy effective Hamiltonian reduces to the 1D Ising model with gapped Excitations. In both cases, all the Elementary Excitations involve simultaneous flips of the spin and orbital degrees of freedom, a clear indication of the breakdown of the traditional mean-field theory.
