Abstract
We study spin-polarized states and their stability in the antiferromagnetic phase of spinor (F=1) quasi-one-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensates. Using analytical approximations and numerical methods, we find various types of polarized states, including patterns of the Thomas-Fermi type, structures featuring a pulse in one component inducing a hole in the other components, states with holes in all three components, and domain walls (DWs). The stability analysis based on the Bogoliubov–de Gennes equations reveals intervals of weak oscillatory instability in families of these states, except for the DWs, which are always stable. The development of the instabilities is examined by means of direct simulations.
