Vortices are among the simplest topological structures, and occur whenever a flow field `whirls' around a one-dimensional core. They are ubiquitous to many branches of physics, from fluid dynamics to superconductivity and superfluidity, and…
Quantized vortices are the prototypical feature of superfluidity. Pervasive in all natural systems, vortices are yet to be observed in dipolar quantum gases. Here, we exploit the anisotropic nature of the dipole-dipole interaction of a…
Vortices and antivortices are typical non uniform magnetization configurations that can be achieved in spin-torque oscillators with in-plane materials. Dynamics of a vortex-antivortex pair, namely vortex dipole, were predicted and already…
