Description

We present analytical stationary solutions for the Gross-Pitaevskii equation (GPE) of a Bose-Einstein condensate (BECs) trapped in a double-well potential. These solutions are compared with those described by [Mahmud et al., PRA \textbf{66}, 063607 (2002)]. In particular, we provide further evidence that symmetry preserving stationary solutions can be reduced to the eigenstates of the corresponding linear Schrödinger equation. Moreover, we have found that the symmetry breaking solutions can emerge not only from bifurcations, but also from isolated points in the chemical potential-nonlinear interaction diagram. We also have found that there are some moving nodes in the symmetry breaking solutions.
