AbstractWe propose efficient and accurate numerical methods for computing the ground state and dynamics of the dipolar Bose-Einstein condensates utilising a newly developed dipole-dipole interaction (DDI) solver that is implemented with the non-uniform fast Fourier transform (NUFFT) algorithm. We begin with the three-dimensional (3D) Gross-Pitaevskii equation (GPE) with a DDI term and present the corresponding two-dimensional (2D) model under a strongly anisotropic confining potential. Different from existing methods, the NUFFT based DDI solver removes the singularity by adopting the spherical/polar coordinates in the Fourier space in 3D/2D, respectively, thus it can achieve spectral accuracy in space and simultaneously maintain high efficiency by making full use of FFT and NUFFT whenever it is necessary and/or needed. Then, we incorporate this solver into existing successful methods for computing the ground state and dynamics of GPE with a DDI for dipolar BEC. Extensive numerical comparisons with existing methods are carried out for computing the DDI, ground states and dynamics of the dipolar BEC. Numerical results show that our new methods outperform existing methods in terms of both accuracy and efficiency.

Scattering of a discrete soliton by a single impurity in dipolar Bose–Einstein condensate is investigated numerically. The results show that the increase of the strength of dipolar interactions leads to repeated reflection, transmission and trapping regions due to energy exchange between the center of mass motion and the internal modes of the impurity. However, increasing the strength of the attractive nonlocal dipole–dipole interaction will result in different scattering windows. While the dipole–dipole interaction can significantly expand the trapping region of the system, nevertheless transmission resonances through the impurity are still observed.

Gaseous Bose-Einstein condensates are a macroscopic condensed-matter system which can be understood from a microscopic, atomic basis. We present examples of how the optical tools of atomic physics can be used to probe properties of this system. In particular, we describe how stimulated light scattering can be used to measure the coherence length of a condensate, to measure its excitation spectrum, and to reveal the presence of pair excitations in the many-body condensate wavefunction.
