• Abstract: Bose-Einstein condensates are suitable systems for studying fundamental aspects of quantum backreaction. Here the backreaction problem in 1D condensates is considered from the perspective of energy and momentum conservation. By assuming the validity of Bogoliubov theory, the backreaction equations are used to identify the contributions to the system energy and momentum coming from quantum fluctuations and condensate corrections. The backreaction is solved for a condensate trapped in a ring configuration and such that particle interactions are continuously switched on. It is shown that the energy in the condensate cannot be addressed without taking into account how the system entered the interacting regime, and even for homogeneous condensates the power transferred to the condensate by quantum fluctuations showcases an intricate non-monotonic pattern.

  We consider a 1D-periodic rotating, interacting non-relativistic setup. The quantum vacuum energy of such a system is expected to comprise two contributions: a fluctuation-induced quantum contribution and a repulsive centrifugal-like term. We find a generic, regularization-independent behavior, where the competition between the interaction and rotation can be balanced at some critical ring-size.

  In the classical regime, thermodynamic state transformations are governed by the free energy. In the quantum regime, coherence and free energy are two independent resources. We show that allowing along with a source of free energy allows us to amplify any quantum coherence present in the quantum state arbitrarily.
