    Observability of Higgs Mode in a system without Lorentz invariance

    We study the observability of the Higgs mode in BEC-BCS crossover. The observability of Higgs mode is investigated by calculating the spectral weight functions of the amplitude fluctuation below the critical transition temperature. At zero temperature, we find that there are two sharp peaks on the spectral function of the amplitude fluctuation attributed to Goldstone and Higgs modes respectively. As the system goes from BCS to BEC side, there is strong enhancement of spectral weight transfer from the Higgs to Goldstone mode. However, even at the unitary regime where the Lorentz invariance is lost, the sharp feature of Higgs mode still exists. We specifically calculate the finite temperature spectral function of amplitude fluctuation at the unitary regime and show that the Higgs mode is observable at the temperature that present experiments can reach.Comment: 5 pages, 2 figure

    Quantized Quasi-Two Dimensional Bose-Einstein Condensates with Spatially Modulated Nonlinearity

    We investigate the localized nonlinear matter waves of the quasi-two dimensional Bose-Einstein condensates with spatially modulated nonlinearity in harmonic potential. It is shown that the whole Bose-Einstein condensates, similar to the linear harmonic oscillator, can have an arbitrary number of localized nonlinear matter waves with discrete energies, which are mathematically exact orthogonal solutions of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation. Their novel properties are determined by the principle quantum number n and secondary quantum number l: the parity of the matter wave functions and the corresponding energy levels depend only on n, and the numbers of density packets for each quantum state depend on both n and l which describe the topological properties of the atom packets. We also give an experimental protocol to observe these novel phenomena in future experiments.Comment: 5 pages, 5 figure

    One-loop renormalization group study of boson-fermion mixtures

    Full text link
    A weakly interacting boson-fermion mixture model was investigated using Wisonian renormalization group analysis. This model includes one boson-boson interaction term and one boson-fermion interaction term. The scaling dimensions of the two interaction coupling constants were calculated as 2-D at tree level and the Gell-Mann-Low equations were derived at one-loop level. We find that in the Gell-Mann-Low equations the contributions from the fermion loops go to zero as the length scale approaches infinity. After ignoring the fermion loop contributions two fixed points were found in 3 dimensional case. One is the Gaussian fixed point and the other one is Wilson-Fisher fixed point. We find that the boson-fermion interaction decouples at the Wilson-Fisher fixed point. We also observe that under RG transformation the boson-fermion interaction coupling constant runs to negative infinity with a small negative initial value, which indicates a boson-fermion pairing instability. Furthermore, the possibility of emergent supersymmetry in this model was discussed.Comment: 10 pages, 2 figure

    This paper seeks to understand extreme public transit riders in Beijing using both traditional household surveys and emerging new data sources such as Smart Card Data (SCD). We focus on four types of extreme transit behaviors: public transit riders who (1) travel significantly earlier than average riders (‘early birds’); (2) ride in unusual late hours (‘night owls’); (3) commute in excessively long distance (‘tireless itinerants’); and (4) make significantly more trips per day (‘recurring itinerants’). SCD are used to identify the spatiotemporal patterns of these four extreme transit behaviors. In addition, household surveys are employed to supplement the socioeconomic background and tentatively profile extreme travelers. While the research findings are useful to guide urban governance and planning in Beijing, our methodology and procedures can be extended to understand travel patterns elsewhere
