Iwo Białynicki-Birula and Zofia Białynicka-Birula
We extend our previous analysis of the motion of vortex lines [I. Bialynicki-Birula, Z. Bialynicka-Birula, and C. Śliwa, Phys. Rev. A 61, 032110 (2000)] from linear to a nonlinear Schrödinger equation with harmonic forces. We also argue that under certain conditions, the influence of the contact nonlinearity on the motion of vortex lines is negligible. The present analysis adds new weight to our previous conjecture that the topological features of vortex dynamics are to a large extent universal.

Spontaneous Emission by Atoms in Simple Environments
Władysław Żakowicz
Spontaneous radiation by atoms in the presence of the planar dielectric--vacuum interface, planar dielectric waveguides and cylindrical dielectric waveguides are discussed in the frame of cavity quantum electrodynamics in full analogy with that in free space. However, quantization of the electromagnetic field should be based on the modes appropriate to the selected space structure. These quantizations are usually based on incoming waves. However, the discussion of the angular intensity pattern of spontaneous emission can be simplified if the quantization is based on outgoing modes. Using these outgoing photons the angular emission radiation pattern has been obtained from a straightforward application of the perturbative method of the quantum radiation theory. Adding a contribution of the waveguiding photons attached to the waveguides (when they are present) the total emission of the spontaneous radiation and excitation decay rates of atoms radiating in these systems have been derived.

Chemical surface diffusion analysis by the time evolution of density profiles. The Monte Carlo simulations
Vacuum 63, 127 (2001)
M. A. Zauska-Kotura, A. Usakowskia, S. Krukowski, Z. Romanowskic and . A. Turski
We present two methods of the Monte Carlo analysis of the chemical diffusion processes on solid surfaces. First method is based on the analysis of the decay of sinusoidal adsorbate density perturbations; the second one uses the Boltzmann–Matano procedure applied to the step-like density profile. The usefulness of both these methods is shown on extraction of the chemical diffusion coefficient from the numerical results.We have applied our two methods to various realizations of 2D lattice gas systems, simulating diffusion of adsorbate on surfaces of crystal having hexagonal symmetry of adsorption sites. In particular we were interested in the dependence of the diffusion process on strength and sign of the interactions of the jumping adatom at its activated state. We have compared systems with the same equilibrium properties (same ordered and disordered phase structure) and different interaction-dependent barriers for attractive and repulsive forces.

On the extinction paradox
Władysław Żakowicz
The extinction paradox, the difference of classical and quantum scattering cross-sections for the scattering of particles by a rigid sphere (σQ=2πa2=2σC for ka>>1), is analyzed in a simpler 2D model of a rigid cylindrical potential. Rigorous solutions of the Schrödinger equation for particle beams, including also finite width beams, are derived and employed in the description of the scattering process. The scattering particle fluxes, with a thorough treatment of the forward directions, are being studied. It is pointed out that for wide beams (w>>a) the scattered flux can reach the value determined by the quantum theory, provided that it is measured at distances R>>waλ. Moderately narrow beams, but also that the transverse width of beams of de Broglie's waves is small.

Light rays and imaging in wave optics
Władysław Żakowicz
An interpretation of focusing and image formation on scattering of electromagnetic waves by a dielectric cylinder (a cylindrical lens) is proposed on the basis of the full Maxwell theory. It is centered on analysis of the behavior of integral curves of the Poynting vector here called wave rays. These wave rays cannot intersect so that the focusing and imaging spots are identified with regions of high flow concentration. Two-dimensional examples of wave rays and wave fronts in the scattering of plane and cylindrical electromagnetic waves as well as of Gaussian beams by a dielectric cylinder derived from rigorous solution of the Maxwell equations for incident waves perpendicular to and uniform along the scatterer are given. Their qualitative comparison with geometrical and diffraction approximations are provided. Fixed points and vortex structure of the Poynting flow are investigated. An example of (Gaussian-beam) scattering with transparent multiple internal reflections and multiple wave splitting is given.

Multi-mode description of an interacting Bose-Einstein condensate
Opt. Express 8, 92 (2001)
Krzysztof Goral, Mariusz Gajda, and Kazimierz Rzazewski
We study the equilibrium dynamics of a weakly interacting Bose-Einstein condensate trapped in a box. In our approach we use a semiclassical approximation similar to the description of a multi-mode laser. In dynamical equations derived from a full N-body quantum Hamiltonian we substitute all creation (and annihilation) operators (of a particle in a given box state) by appropriate c-number amplitudes. The set of nonlinear equations obtained in this way is solved numerically. We show that on the time scale of a few miliseconds the system exhibits relaxation -- reaches an equilibrium with populations of different eigenstates fluctuating around their mean values.

Ionization of hydrogen atoms by intense vacuum ultraviolet radiation
J. Phys. B 34, 2245 (2001)
Jaroslaw Bauer, Lukasz Plucinski, Bernard Piraux, Robert Potvliege, Mariusz Gajda and Jacek Krzywinski
We study the ionization of hydrogen atoms by an intense pulsed beam of photons with energies of 17 or 50 eV. The work is motivated by the demonstration of the free-electron laser (FEL) action at the DESY Laboratory. The parameters chosen for the incident field are in the regime accessible by the FEL. Ionization yields are obtained within three different approaches, namely the strong-field approximation, the Floquet method and a numerical solution of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation. A marked stabilization effect for 50 eV photons is shown.

On coherence of Bose fields
Mariusz Gajda, Magdalena Zaluska-Kotur, and Jan Mostowski
We study a system of interacting bosons at zero temperature in an atomic trap. Using wave function that models the ground state of interacting bosons we examine the concepts of the order parameter, off-diagonal order and coherence of the system. We suggest that the coherence length becomes much smaller than the size of the system if the number of trapped particles exceeds a certain limit. This behavior is related to the unavoidable existence of two different length scales -- one determined by the external potential and the second one depending on the two-body forces.
