Bouncing motion and penetration dynamics in multicomponent Bose-Einstein condensates
We investigate the dynamic properties of bouncing and penetration in colliding binary and ternary Bose-Einstein condensates comprised of different Zeeman or hyperfine states of $^{87}\mathrm{Rb}$. Through the application of magnetic field gradient pulses, two- or three-component condensates in an optical trap are spatially separated and then made to collide. The …
