Quantized vortex dynamics in superfluid $^4$He (He~II) are widely regarded as well established: circulation is quantized in units of $\kappa=h/m_4$, vortices carrying more than one quantum are expected to split into singly quantized…

In a cluster crystal, each lattice site is occupied by multiple soft-core particles. As the number density is increased at zero temperature, a `cascade' of isostructural phase transitions can occur between states whose site occupancy…
We show the emergence of reaction hotspots induced by three-dimensional (3D) vortices with a simple $A+B \rightarrow C$ reaction. We conduct microfluidics experiments to visualize the spatial map of the reaction rate with the…
Certain models with purely repulsive pair interactions can form cluster crystals with multiply-occupied lattice sites. Simulating these models' equilibrium properties is, however, quite challenging. Here, we develop an expanded…
We show that the decay of a soliton into vortices provides a mechanism for measuring the initial phase difference between two merging Bose-Einstein condensates. At very low temperatures, the mechanism is resonant, operating only when the…
