We study the dynamics of small vortex clusters with few (2--4) co-rotating vortices in Bose-Einstein condensates by means of experiments, numerical computations, and theoretical analysis. All of these approaches corroborate the…

We study the structure of the vortex core in two-component Bose-Einstein condensates. We demonstrate that the order parameter may not vanish and the symmetry may not be restored in the core of the vortex. In this case such vortices can form…

We study numerically the excitations of off-centered vortices in a Bose-Einstein condensate. The displacement of a single vortex and the separation of a doubly quantized vortex are considered. We find that the core-localized excitations of…

We examine a Bose-Einstein condensate of atoms that rotates in a quadratic-plus-quartic potential. It is shown that states of different circulation can be metastable. As a result, we demonstrate that the gas can exhibit hysteresis as the…
