Vortices study's justification lays in the fact that those former play an important part in quantum turbulence. The Gross-Pitaevskii equation can't be a proper model...

This work is devoted to the study of the properties of polaritons, half-matter/half-light particles, in a semiconductor microcavity. Their bosonic behaviour enables to...

This thesis is devoted to the study of the analogue of Hawking radiation in Bose-Einstein condensates. The first chapter presents new configurations of experimental...

The physical properties of a homogeneous system at the thermodynamic equilibrium are strongly constrained by its dimensionality. In this respect, the two dimensional...

The topic of this thesis is the study of localization of a quasi-one-dimensional and harmonically trapped Bose-Einstein condensate through which various disordered...
