Thermalization of a two-species condensate — •Jan Louw1, Michael Kastner2, and Johannes Kriel2 — 1University of Goettingen, Goettingen, Germany — 2Stellenbosch University, Stellenbosch, South Africa
Motivated by recent experiments, we study the time evolution of a two-species Bose-Einstein condensate which is coupled to a bosonic bath. For the particular condensate, unconventional thermodynamics have recently been predicted. To study these thermal properties we find the conditions under which this open quantum system thermalizes---equilibrates to the Gibbs state describing the canonical ensemble. We do this in a semi-classical picture with corrections scaling with the inverse system size.
