We present a variational study of pseudo-spin $1/2$ Bose gases in a harmonic trap with weak 3D spin-orbit coupling of $\bmsigma\cdot\mathbf{p}$ type. This spin-orbit coupling mixes states with different parities, which inspires us to…

We determine the hydrodynamic modes of the superfluid analog of a smectic-A phase in liquid crystals, i.e., a state in which both gauge invariance and translational invariance along a single direction are spontaneously broken. Such a…

We theoretically investigate the ground states and the spectrum of elementary excitations across the superfluid to droplet crystallization transition of an oblate dipolar Bose-Einstein condensate. We systematically identify regimes where…

We show that a sudden change in the polarization direction of the magnetic dipole moments of the atoms in a dipolar Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) can serve as a useful probe to sense its superfluid and solid-like properties. We find that…
