| 研究実績の概要 |
I have developed a full numerical scheme to simulate the ground states and dynamics of different (Bosonic and Fermionic) impurities trapped by an atomic bright soliton, which acts as an effective matter-wave trap in this context. By exploring the full parameter space of this problem, we have revealed regions where this matter-wave impurity system is stable. By exploring the scattering dynamics of the matter-wave impurity system with a moving 'empty' soliton, regimes of unusual transport where the impurity has a dramatic effect on the solitons dynamics due to it's ability to tunnel back-and-forth between the solitons has been obtained.
Further, the above work has also revealed numerically quasi-stable 'trimers' - bound three-soliton objects which display an unexpected dynamical stability due directly to the presence of a bosonic impurity initially localized in one of the solitons, whose tunneling dynamics between this effective triple well system is attributed the the observed stability of the solitons.
Complimentary to this, I also spent a little time finishing a project related to bright solitons (see point 4 below) with one of my former groups, I acknowledged funding from the JSPS in this publication.

理由
As well as finishing the above projects, it would be interesting to extend these ideas to other cold atom systems that support solitonic solutions, such as the dipolar system. In this setting, soliton solutions are available in two as well as the traditional one spatial dimension, here one can explore the effect of dimensionality on the interplay of the matter-wave impurity system, and potentially build more complicated objects, such as a Toda lattice.
