Amplification of Local Instabilities in a Bose-Einstein Condensate with Attractive Interactions
We study the collapse of large homogeneous Bose-Einstein condensates due to intrinsic attractive interactions. We observe the amplification of a local instability by seeding a momentum state p and suddenly switching the scattering length negative via a Feshbach resonance. We also observe the appeara...
