Controlling interactions between bright solitons in Bose-Einstein condensate

Considering the periodically driving linear potential, we study the interactions between two solitons in Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC). By using Darboux transformation, the double bright soliton solution of Gross-Pitaevskii equation is obtained. Then we numerically calculate the properties of interaction between the two bright solitons in BEC, and obtain a critical value of the S-wave scattering length (SL). It is shown that, when the SL is more than the critical value, the attractive interaction and the atom transfer between two bright solitons can be observed. While the SL is less than the critical value, two bright solitons can keep stable and localized. Furthermore, the stable periodic oscillations of two solitons can be observed by slowly changing the potential. These results will be conducive to the BEC soliton experiments.
