Transition radiation by matter-wave solitons in optical lattices

  • 5 December 2003
Abstract
We demonstrate that matter-wave solitary pulses formed from Bose condensed atoms moving inside optical lattices continuously radiate dispersive matter waves with prescribed momentum. Our analytical results for the radiation parameters and the soliton decay rate are found to be in excellent agreement with numerical modelling performed for experimentally relevant parameters.
