Chaotic dynamics of cold atoms in far-off-resonant donut beam

英文摘要：

We describe the classical two dimensinal nonlinear dynamics of cold atoms in far-off-resonant donut beams. We show that there chaotic dynamics exists for charge greater than unity, when the intensity of the beam is periodically modulated. The two dimensional distributions of atoms in $(x,y)$ plane for charge two are simulated. We show that the atoms will acumulate on several ring regions when the system enters to regime of global chaos.
