Fast Rotating Scalar and Multi-component Bose Gases
We show that in the limit of large angular momentum, many equilibrium and dynamical phenomena of scalar and multi-component Bose gases can be accounted for by approximating the system to reside in an effective lowest Landau level. This method explains the origin of the mysterious stripe formation in fast rotating Bose gas recently observed at JILA, and accounts for all the dynamical details observed in this experiment. To further demonstrate the usefulness of this method, we present its predictions of the interference patterns of two vortex lattices, and rich vortex lattice structures in multi-component Bose gases.
