We report on measurements of the excitation spectrum of a strongly interacting Bose-Einstein condensate. A magnetic-field Feshbach resonance is used to tune atom-atom interactions in the condensate and to reach a regime where quantum depletion and beyond mean-field corrections to the condensate chemical potential are significant. We use two-photon Bragg spectroscopy to probe the condensate excitation spectrum; our results demonstrate the onset of beyond mean-field effects in a gaseous Bose-Einstein condensate.
我们报告了关于强相互作用玻色-爱因斯坦凝聚体激发光谱的测量结果。利用磁场费什巴赫共振来调节凝聚体中的原子-原子相互作用,并达到量子耗尽以及对凝聚体化学势的超出平均场修正显著的状态。我们使用双光子布拉格光谱来探测凝聚体激发光谱;我们的结果证明了气态玻色-爱因斯坦凝聚体中超出平均场效应的出现。
