Molecular dynamics of trapped ultracold gases on GPUs — •Roman Nolte — TU Darmstadt
The understanding of classical molecular dynamics of N rapped interacting atoms is an important precursor in order to achieve quantum degeneracy. In the QUANTUS experiment [1], which explores quantum gases in microgravity in the ZARM droptower in Bremen, the evaporation time is a scarce resource. It is therefore of critical importance to understand the non-equilibrium dynamics with high precision.
In this contribution we present results of N-particle 3D molecular dynamics simulation performed on graphic cards (GPU) for the relaxation and evaporation of up to 105 cold trapped atoms.
