After reviewing the ideal Bose-Einstein gas in a box and in a harmonic trap, the effect of
interactions on the formation of a Bose-Einstein condensate are discussed, along with the …

The author presents a tutorial review of some ideas that are basic to our current
understanding of the phenomenon of Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) in the dilute atomic …

The current research into solitons and their use in fiber optic communications is very
important to the future of communications. Since the advent of computer networking and …

Using a focused laser beam we stir a Bose-Einstein condensate of 87 Rb confined in a
magnetic trap and observe the formation of a vortex for a stirring frequency exceeding a …

The properties of quasi-two-dimensional semiconductor quantum dots are reviewed.
Experimental techniques for measuring the electronic shell structure and the effect of …

In this article, we review developments in the theory of rapidly rotating degenerate atomic
gases. The main focus is on the equilibrium properties of a single-component atomic Bose …

We review the theory of vortices in trapped dilute Bose-Einstein condensates and compare
theoretical predictions with existing experiments. Mean-field theory based on the time …

In physics, wave propagation is traditionally analyzed by means of regular solutions of wave
equations. However, solutions of wave equations in two and three dimensions often possess …

We investigate theoretically the phase diagram of a spin-orbit coupled Bose gas in two-
dimensional harmonic traps. We show that at strong spin-orbit coupling the single-particle …

We investigate the ground states of weakly interacting bosons in a rotating trap as a function
of the number of bosons, N, and the average number of vortices, N V. We identify the filling …
