Analyzing jets emitted from Bose-Einstein condensates with insights from particle and nuclear physics.

In this talk, I will propose an explanation for some of the features of the emission of jets of atoms from stimulated Bose-Einstein condensates, discovered recently by Clark et al. [1], by using analogies with particle physics [2]. I argue that the widening and depletion of the away-side peak in the measured angular correlation function is consistent with a dijet acoplanarity of a few degrees, similar to the case of parton-parton scattering with "intrinsic kT''. I will also show proposals for studies of collectivity in this jet phenomenon inspired in studies of the quark-gluon plasma.\\ \\$[1]$ L.W Clark, L.W Clark et al, ”Collective emission of matter-wave jets from driven BoseEinstein condensates”, Nature 551, 356359 \\ \\$[2]$ M.
