Density waves in dipolar Bose-Einstein condensates — •Alexandru Nicolin — Horia Hulubei National Institute for Physics and Nuclear Engineering, Magurele, Romania

Density waves in cigar-shaped dipolar Bose-Einstein condensates are analysed by variational means and we show analytically how the dipole-dipole interaction between the atoms generates a roton-maxon excitation spectrum. A simple model is used to derive the effective equations which describe the emergence of the density waves.
