Dissipative defects in ultracold quantum gases — •Matthias Scholl, Arne Ewerbeck, Andreas Vogler, Peter Würtz, Vera Guarrera, Giovanni Barontini, and Herwig Ott — Fachbereich Physik, Universität Kaiserslautern

We study the evolution of a Bose-Einstein condensate subjected to a local dissipative defect. In our experiment, we locally remove atoms from the cloud by ionizing them with a focussed electron beam. By analyzing the time resolved ion signal, we explore the decay dynamics of the BEC. Theoretically, we model the decay by a numerical simulation of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation with an imaginary potential.
