Castaing's instability in a trapped ultra-cold gas
J. N. Fuchs, O. Prevote, D. M. Gangardt
Abstract
We consider a trapped ultra-cold gas of (non-condensed) bosons with two internal states (described by a pseudo spin) and study the stability of a longitudinal pseudo spin polarization gradient. For this purpose, we numerically solve a kinetic equation corresponding to a situation close to an experiment at JILA. It shows the presence of Castaing's instability of transverse spin polarization fluctuations at long wavelengths. This phenomenon could be used to create spontaneous transverse spin waves.
