On the Exponential Decay of Strongly Interacting Cold Atoms from a Double-Well Potential

Abstract

AbstractIn this article, we study an exponential decay for the gas of bosons with strong repulsive delta interactions from a double-well potential. We consider an exactly solvable model comprising an infinite wall and two Dirac delta barriers. We explore its features both within the exact method and with the resonance expansion approach. The study reveals the effect of the splitting barrier on the decay rate in dependence on the number of particles. Among other things, we find that the effect of the splitting barrier on the decay rate is most pronounced in systems with odd particle numbers. During exponential decay, the spatial correlations in an internal region are well captured by the “radiating state”.
