Spin and density self-ordering in dynamic polarization gradients fields

We study the zero-temperature quantum phase diagram for a two-component Bose-Einstein condensate in an optical cavity. The two atomic spin states are Raman coupled by two transverse orthogonally polarized, blue-detuned plane-wave lasers inducing a repulsive cavity potential. For a weak pump the lase...
