Condensate trapped with weak optical lattice confinement in one direction and stronger one in other two form a quasi-one dimensional condensate. What is the life time observed for 1-d condensate to the date?
This is actually a problem for Cold Atoms (Molecules) trapped in Optical Lattices of any geometry. Cold atom condensates are only stable for short times. Typically ms. Also with respect to what Zhang said, you need to know the type of atoms (molecules) involved. Some people connect the Coherent Time, tau to this stability issues and so define tau = pi/Omega [arXiv:1206.5023v1]. For NaK, this yields 100 ms.
