In superfluid helium, vorticity is quantized and constrained on line-like phase singularities, called quantum or quantized vortices. By visualizing the motion of sub-micron frozen particles in superfluid $^{4}$He, we directly observe for…

We investigate dynamic creation of fractionalized half-quantum vortices in Bose-Einstein condensates of sodium atoms. Our simulations show that both individual half-quantum vortices and vortex lattices can be created in rotating optical…

A gel consists of a network of particles or molecules formed for example using the sol-gel process, by which a solution transforms into a porous solid. Particles or molecules in a gel are mainly organized on a scaffold that makes up a…

The ground state with vorticity larger than one in mesoscopic superconductors in applied magnetic field may manifest as a `giant'-vortex, where all vortices coalesce into a single singularity of the order parameter. Such a multi-quanta…
