problem description

# Problem setup: Fermionic atoms trapped in an optical lattice are used to simulate the Hubbard model. Specifically, two pairs of counter-propagating beams intersect at 90 degrees. The beams have equal wavelength λ\lambda, amplitude EE, beam waists WW, and are polarized normal to the plane in which they intersect. The atoms are trapped in the resulting interference pattern because of their polarizability α\alpha at a wavelength of λ\lambda. The atoms have a mass mm and an ss-wave scattering length of asa_s. # Main problem: Compute the tunneling energy tt and contact interaction UU associated with the resulting Hubbard model. To obtain analytical answers, assume that the Wannier functions can be approximated by the harmonic-oscillator eigenstates and that WλW\gg\lambda and V0ERV_0\gg E_R.

# Problem setup:

Fermionic atoms trapped in an optical lattice are used to simulate the Hubbard model. Specifically, two pairs of counter-propagating beams intersect at 90 degrees. The beams have equal wavelength $\lambda$, amplitude $E$, beam waists $W$, and are polarized normal to the plane in which they intersect. The atoms are trapped in the resulting interference pattern because of their polarizability $\alpha$ at a wavelength of $\lambda$. The atoms have a mass $m$ and an $s$-wave scattering length of $a_s$.

# Main problem:

Compute the tunneling energy $t$ and contact interaction $U$ associated with the resulting Hubbard model.

To obtain analytical answers, assume that the Wannier functions can be approximated by the harmonic-oscillator eigenstates and that $W\gg\lambda$ and $V_0\gg E_R$.
