Reversible decay of ring dark solitons

Quantum Gases 2014-04-15 v1

Abstract

We show how boundary effects can cause a Bose-Einstein condensate to periodically oscillate between a (circular) array of quantised vortex-antivortex pairs and a (ring) dark soliton. If the boundary is restrictive enough, the ring dark soliton becomes long-lived.
