Resonant nonlinear quantum transport for a periodically kicked Bose condensate

Our realistic numerical results show that the fundamental and higher-order quantum resonances of the δ-kicked rotor are observable in state-of-the-art experiments with a Bose condensate in a shallow harmonic trap, kicked by a spatially periodic optical lattice. For stronger confinement, interaction-induced destruction of the resonant motion of the kicked harmonic oscillator is predicted
