Effective self-similar expansion of a Bose-Einstein condensate: Free space versus confined geometries

We compare the exact evolution of an expanding three-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensate with that obtained from the effective scaling approach introduced in D. Guéry-Odelin [Phys. Rev. A 66, 033613 (2002)PLRAAN1050-294710.1103/PhysRevA.66.033613]. This approach, which consists in looking for self-...
