Temperature dependence of the in situ widths of a rotating condensate in one dimensional optical potential

•The temperature dependence of the in situ widths of a rotating condensate boson in 1D optical potential is investigated.•We trace the experimentally accessible parameters for which the in situ widths become perceivable.•The above mentioned parameters exhibit a characteristic rotation rate and optical potential depth dependence.•Characteristic dependence of the effective widths on temperature is investigated.•Our results provide useful qualitatively and quantitative theoretical results for experiments in various traps.

In this paper, a conventional method of quantum statistical mechanics is used to study the temperature dependence of the in situ widths of a rotating condensate bosons in 1D optical potential. We trace the experimentally accessible parameters for which the temperature dependence of the in situ widths becomes perceivable. The calculated results showed that the temperature dependence of the in situ widths is completely different from that of a rotating condensate or trapped bosons in the optical lattice separately. The z-width shows distinct behavior from x- and y-widths due to the rotation effect. The obtained results provide useful qualitative theoretical results for future Bose Einstein condensation experiments in such traps.
