We experimentally study the fluid flow induced by a broad, penetrable barrier moving through an elongated dilute gaseous Bose-Einstein condensate. The barrier is created by a laser beam swept through the condensate, and the resulting dipole…
A vortex in a trapped Bose-Einstein condensate can experience at least two types of instabilities. (1). Macroscopic hydrodynamic motion of the vortex core relative to the center of mass of the condensate requires some process to dissipate…
In the present work, we revisit two-component Bose-Einstein condensates in their fully three-dimensional (3d) form. Motivated by earlier studies of dark-bright solitons in the 1d case, we explore the stability of these structures in their…
We consider an ultracold dipolar Bose gas in a one-dimensional lattice. For a sufficiently large lattice recoil energy, such a system becomes a series of non-overlapping Bose-Einstein condensates that interact via the long-range…
