Abstract
We analyze the response of condensed trapped atoms to external driving magnetic fields. Solving the time-dependent Gross-Pitaewskii equation within a new, accurate algorithm, we found frequencies and relaxation times of collective oscillations in excellent agreement with the experimental results. Using simple scaling arguments we make quantitative predictions for future experiments.Keywords
