Anomalous quantum reflection as a quasi-dynamical damping effect
  We develop a quasi-analytical theory for the quantum reflection amplitude of Bose-Einstein condensates. We derive and calculate the decay-width of a Bose-Einstein condensate. A general relation between the time-dependent decay-law of the system and its quantum reflection amplitude allows us to explain the quantum reflection anomaly of Bose-Einstein condensates present in BEC-surface systems as a direct consequence of the repulsive particle interaction.
