The fundamental mode of rotation in quantum fluids is given by a vortex, whose quantized value yields the orbital angular momentum (OAM) per particle. If the vortex is displaced (off-centered) from the reference point for rotation, the…

We consider the formation and evolution of vortices in a hydrodynamic shearing-sheet model. The evolution is done numerically using a version of the ZEUS code. Consistent with earlier results, an injected vorticity field evolves into a set…

The dynamics of Abrikosov vortices in superconductors is usually limited to vortex velocities $v\simeq1$ km/s above which samples abruptly transit into the normal state. In the Larkin-Ovchinnikov framework, near the critical temperature…

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…
