Rotational superradiance was predicted theoretically decades ago, and is chiefly responsible for a number of important effects and phenomenology in black-hole physics. However, rotational superradiance has never been observed…
We present a diffusion Monte Carlo study of a single vortex in two-dimensional superfluid liquid $^4$He within the fixed node approximation. We use both the Feynman phase and an improved phase which includes backflow correlations to model…

Using the analogy between a shrinking fluid vortex (`draining bathtub'), modelled as a (2+1) dimensional fluid flow with a sink at the origin, and a rotating (2+1) dimensional black hole with an ergosphere, it is shown that a scalar sound…

For an ordered array of critical volatile wetting droplets the formation of a super lattice by an Ostwald-ripening like competition process is considered. The underlying diffusion problem is treated within a quasistatic approximation and to…
Angular momentum plays a central role in a multitude of phenomena in quantum mechanics, recurring in every length scale from the microscopic interactions of light and matter to the macroscopic behavior of superfluids. Vortex beams, carrying…

Superfluid vortex dynamics on an infinite cylinder differs significantly from that on a plane. The requirement that a condensate wave function be single valued upon once encircling the cylinder means that such a single vortex cannot remain…

Evaporative cooling of helium nanodroplets is studied with a statistical rate model that includes, for the first time, angular momentum conservation as a constraint on the accessible droplet states. It is found that while the final…
We have studied the merging of two $^4$He droplets at zero temperature, caused by their Van der Waals mutual attraction. During the early stages of the merging, density structures appear which closely match the experimental observations by…
Unlike to superfluid $^4$He the superfluid $^3$He-A support the existence of vortices with half quantum of circulation as well as single quantum vortices. The singular single quanta vortices as well as nonsingular vortices with 2 quanta of…
The possibility of a supersolid state of matter, i.e., a crystalline solid exhibiting superfluid properties, first appeared in theoretical studies about forty years ago. After a long period of little interest due to the lack of experimental…
Recent breakthrough experiments on dipolar condensates have reported the creation of supersolids, including two-dimensional arrays of quantum droplets. Droplet arrays are, however, not the only possible non-trivial density arrangement…

We study the dynamics of quantized superfluid vortices on axisymmetric compact surfaces with no holes, where the total vortex charge must vanish and the condition of irrotational flow forbids distributed vorticity. A conformal…
