Dipolar interactions and magnetoroton softening in spinor condensates Funded by NSF, DARPA, MURI, AFOSR, Harvard-MIT CUA Collaborators: Vladimir Gritsev (Univ. Frieburg) Dan Stamper-Kurn (UC Berkeley) Robert Cherng, Harvard University Eugene Demler Harvard University

Outline Introduction. Roton softening and supersolids Magnetic dipolar interactions in spinor condensates. Averaging over Larmor precession Instabilities. Qualitative picture and analysis of Bogoliubov modes Berkeley experiments. Spontaneously modulated textures in spinor condensates

Phase diagram of 4He Possible supersolid phase in 4 He A.F. Andreev and I.M. Lifshits (1969): Melting of vacancies in a crystal due to strong quantum fluctuations. Also G. Chester (1970); A.J. Leggett (1970) T. Schneider and C.P. Enz (1971). Formation of the supersolid phase due to softening of roton excitations

Interlayer coherence in bilayer quantum Hall systems at n=1 Hartree-Fock predicts roton softening and transition into a state with both interlayer coherence and stripe order. Transport experiments suggest first order transition into a compressible state. L. Brey and H. Fertig (2000) Eisenstein, Boebinger et al. (1994)

Roton spectrum in pancake polar condensates Santos, Shlyapnikov, Lewenstein (2000) Fischer (2006) Origin of roton softening Repulsion at long distances Attraction at short distances Stability of the supersolid phase is a subject of debate

Magnetic dipolar interactions in spinor condensates Comparison of contact and dipolar interactions. Typical value a=100a B q For 87 Rb m = m B and e =0.007 For 52 Cr m =6 m B and e =0.16 Bose condensation of 52 Cr. T. Pfau et al. (2005) Review: Menotti et al., arXiv

Magnetic dipolar interactions in spinor condensates Interaction of F=1 atoms Ferromagnetic Interactions for 87 Rb Spin-depenent part of the interaction is small. Dipolar interaction may be important (D. Stamper-Kurn) a 2 -a 0 = a B A. Widera, I. Bloch et al., New J. Phys. 8:152 (2006)

Spontaneously modulated textures in spinor condensates Fourier spectrum of the fragmented condensate Vengalattore et al. PRL (2008)

This talk: Instabilities of F=1 spinor condensates due to dipolar interactions. New phenomena due to averaging over Larmor precession Theory: unstable modes in the regime corresponding to Berkeley experiments Results of Berkeley experiments Earlier theoretical work on dipolar interactions in spinor condensates: Meystre et al. (2002), Ueda et. al. (2006), Lamacraft (2007). New phenomena: interplay of finite transverse size and dipolar interaction in the presence of fast Larmor precession

Dipolar interactions after averaging over Larmor precession

Energy scales S-wave Scattering Spin independent (g 0 n = kHz) Spin dependent (g s n = 10 Hz) Dipolar Interaction Anisotropic (g d n=10 Hz) Long-ranged Magnetic Field Larmor Precession (100 kHz) Quadratic Zeeman (0-20 Hz) B F Reduced Dimensionality Quasi-2D geometry

Dipolar interactions parallel to is preferred “Head to tail” component dominates Static interaction Averaging over Larmor precession z perpendicular to is preferred. “Head to tail” component is averaged with the “side by side”

Instabilities: qualitative picture

Stability of systems with static dipolar interactions Ferromagnetic configuration is robust against small perturbations. Any rotation of the spins conflicts with the “head to tail” arrangement Large fluctuation required to reach a lower energy configuration

XY components of the spins can lower the energy using modulation along z. Z components of the spins can lower the energy using modulation along x X Dipolar interaction averaged after precession “Head to tail” order of the transverse spin components is violated by precession. Only need to check whether spins are parallel Strong instabilities of systems with dipolar interactions after averaging over precession X

Instabilities: technical details

Conclusions Dipolar interactions crucial for spinor condensates… But effectively modified by quasi-2D and precession Variety of instabilities (ring, stripe, checkerboard) But what about the ground state?
