We numerically study the dynamics of Faraday waves in a pancake-shaped Bose--Einstein condensate (BEC) subject to periodic modulation of the interaction. After the modulation starts, Faraday waves appear and, thereafter, the BEC enters the…

The collective chasing dynamics of non-reciprocally coupled densities leads to stable travelling waves which can be mapped to a model for emergent flocking. In this work, we couple the non-reciprocal Cahn-Hilliard model (NRCH) to a fluid to…
