1 Inclusion of Mean Field Effects in the Two-Mode Model of BECs in a Double Well David Masiello in collaboration with Bill Reinhardt University of Washington, Seattle August 8th, 2005 masiello@u.washington.edu
2 Outline Part 1 (What Bill would ve talked about) BEC Fragmentation MOs and molecular dissociation Energy level correlation diagrams Oscillator, fragmented, & cat states Analog of Anderson s pendulum Generating & detecting le chat de Schrödinger
3 Outline Continued Part 2 Build in effects of mean field Hartree-Fock for bosons Confusing role of factor of 2 in Hartree- Fock contact interaction Energy level correlation diagrams Oscillator, fragmented, and cat states Lively discussion
4 BEC Double Well Problem External potential V (x) Bose-Hubbard description 2 modes χ L (x) χ R (x) χ A (x) GP or mean field description χ S (x) 1 mode
5 Why are Correlations Important in Fragmentation? Chemical problem: Molecular dissociation H 2 H + H Molecular orbital theory works well near equilibrium ground state geometry of Ψ MO (x 1, x 2 ) = [χ L (x 1 ) + χ R (x 1 )][χ L (x 2 ) + χ R (x 2 )] This superposition is a GP type ansatz H 2
6 R 1 R 2 But as... Molecular orbital theory fails Ψ MO (1, 2) = [χ L (1) + χ R (1)][χ L (2) + χ R (2)] = χ L (1)χ L (2) + χ R (1)χ R (2)+χ L (1)χ R (2) + χ R (1)χ L (2) Description of dissociated H atoms needs two configurations Ψ CI (1, 2) = C 1 [χ L (1) + χ R (1)][χ L (2) + χ R (2)] +C 2 [χ L (1) χ R (1)][χ L (2) χ R (2)] GP theory, being one configuration, cannot do this!
