Mean-field regime and Thomas–Fermi approximations of trapped Bose–Einstein condensates with higher-order interactions in one and two dimensions
We derive rigorously one- and two-dimensional mean-field equations for cigar- and pancake-shaped Bose-Einstein condensates (BEC) with higher order interactions (HOI). We show how the higher order interaction modifies the contact interaction of the strongly confined particles. Surprisingly, we find that the usual Gaussian profile assumption for the strongly confining direction …
