Tests of Bose-broken Symmetry in Atomic Bose-Einstein Condensates
/ Authors
/ Abstract
We present an elementary model of the collapses and revivals in the visibility of the interference between two atomic Bose-Einstein condensates. We obtain different predictions of the revival times whether we conserve or break atom number conservation from the outset. The validity of Bose-broken symmetry can be tested by observations of these collapses and revivals.
