摘要：
We consider a nonlinear version of the Landau-Zener problem, focusing on photoassociation of a Bose-Einstein condensate as a specific example. Contrary to the exponential rate dependence obtained for the linear problem, when the resonance is crossed slowly the no-transition probability is directly proportional to the rate at which the resonance is crossed.
