We study the drag on an object moving through a trapped Bose-Einstein condensate, and show that finite compressibility leads to a mutual drag, which is subsequently suppressed by the formation of a vortex ring.
We investigate by numerical simulations the pattern formation after an oscillating attractive-repulsive obstacle inserted into the flow of a Bose-Einstein condensate. For slow oscillations we observe a complex emission of vortex dipoles.…
