Anderson Localization of Bogolyubov Quasiparticles in Interacting Bose-Einstein Condensates
Résumé
We study the Anderson localization of Bogolyubov quasiparticles in an interacting Bose-Einstein condensate (with healing length \xi) subjected to a random potential (with finite correlation length \sigma_R). We derive analytically the Lyapunov exponent as a function of the quasiparticle momentum k and we study the localization maximum k_{max}. For 1D speckle potentials, we find that k_{max} is proportional to 1/\xi when \xi is much larger than \sigma_R while k_{max} is proportional to 1/\sigma_R when \xi is much smaller than \sigma_R, and that the localization is strongest when \xi is of the order of \sigma_R. Numerical calculations support our analysis and our estimates indicate that the localization of the Bogolyubov quasiparticles is accessible in current experiments with ultracold atoms.
