Evolution of a coherent array of Bose-Einstein Condensates in a magnetic trap
Abstract
We investigate the evolution process of the interference pattern for a coherent array of Bose-Einstein condensates in a magnetic trap after the optical lattices are switched off. It is shown that there is a decay and revival of the density oscillation for the condensates confined in the magnetic trap. We find that, due to the confinement of the magnetic trap, the interference effect is much stronger than that of the experiment induced by Pedri et al. (Phys. Rev. Lett, 87, 220401), where the magnetic trap is switched off too. The interaction correction to the interference effect is also discussed for the density distribution of the central peak.
