摘要
We theoretically investigate the free dispersion, scattering and disintegration of an N-particle quantum soliton by Bragg light pulses, comparing the exact quantum result with its quasiclassical (mean-field) limit. Remarkably, we find that the correlation properties of a quantum soliton approach the (mean-field) limit very rapidly as the particle number N grows. A modest discrepancy between the classical and quantum results is observed for N = 3.
