Dynamics in asymmetric double-well condensates

The dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensates in asymmetric double wells is studied. We construct a two-mode model and analyze the properties of the corresponding phase-space diagram, showing in particular that the minimum of the phase-space portrait becomes shifted from the origin as a consequence of t...

description The dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensates in asymmetric double wells is studied.
