Atomic Scattering on Bose-Einstein Condensates — •Joachim Brand, Ivo Häring, and Jan Michael Rost — Max-Planck-Institut für Physik komplexer Systeme

A relation between the number of bound collective excitations of an atomic Bose-Einstein condensate and the phase shift of elastically scattered atoms is derived. Within the Bogoliubov model of a weakly interacting Bose gas this relation is exact and generalises Levinson’s theorem. Specific features of the Bogoliubov model such as complex-energy modes, continuum bound states, and Fano resonances are discussed and a numerical example is given.
