摘要
Bose-Hubbard Hamiltonian of cold two-component Bose gas of spinor chromium atoms is studied. Dipolar interactions of magnetic moments while tuned resonantly by an ultralow magnetic field can lead to a transfer of atoms from the ground to excited Wannier states with a nonvanishing angular orbital momentum. Hence we propose the way of creating P-x + iP(y) orbital superfluid. The spin introduces an additional degree of control and leads to a variety of different stable phases of the system. The Mott insulator of atoms in a superposition of the ground and vortex Wannier states as well as a superposition of the Mott insulator with orbital superfluid are predicted.
