Rossby-Haurwitz wave in a rotating bubble-shaped Bose-Einstein condensate

Quantum Gases 2023-03-22 v1

Abstract

A Rossby-Haurwitz (RH) wave is an excitation mode of a fluid on a rotating spherical surface, which propagates westward in the rotating frame of reference. Motivated by the recent realization of the shell-shaped Bose-Einstein condensate in microgravity, we investigate the RH wave in a superfluid rotating on a spherical-surface geometry. We employ the point-vortex model and the three-dimensional Gross-Pitaevskii equation, and numerically demonstrate that RH waves can be observed in the system of a superfluid with quantized vortices.
