Emergent Nonlinear Phenomena in Bose-Einstein Condensates: Theory and Experiment

Springer Series on Atomic, Optical, and Plasma Physics #45

by Panayotis G. Kevrekidis (Editor), Dimitri J. Frantzeskakis (Editor), Ricardo Carretero-González (Editor)

This book, written by experts in the fields of atomic physics and nonlinear science, covers the important developments in a special aspect of Bose-Einstein condensation, namely nonlinear phenomena in condensates. Topics covered include bright, dark, gap and multidimensional solitons; vortices; vortex lattices; optical lattices; multicomponent condensates; mathematical methods/rigorous results; and the beyond-the-mean-field approach.
