We consider the existence, stability and dynamics of the nodeless state and fundamental nonlinear excitations, such as vortices, for a quasi-two-dimensional polariton condensate in the presence of pumping and nonlinear damping. We find a…
Exact many-body wave functions for quantum dots containing up to four interacting electrons are computed and we investigated the distribution of the wave function nodes, also called vortices. For this purpose, we evaluate the reduced wave…
Vortices are pervasive in nature, representing the breakdown of laminar fluid flow and hence playing a key role in turbulence. The fluid rotation associated with a vortex can be parameterized by the circulation $\Gamma=\oint {\rm d}{\bf…

Multi-quanta, or giant, vortices (GVs) are known to appear in very small superconductors near the superconducting transition due to strong confinement of magnetic flux. Here we present evidence for a new, pinning-related, mechanism for the…

Releasing shell-shaped Bose-Einstein condensates from their confinement produces a spherically symmetric density distribution characterized by concentric ripples surrounding a central peak. Here we investigate how a vortex-antivortex dipole…

The properties of a rotating Bose-Einstein condensate confined in a prolate cylindrically symmetric trap are explored both analytically and numerically. As the rotation frequency increases, an ever greater number of vortices are…
Multiply quantised vortices (MQVs) within single component Bose-Einstein condensates are unstable and decay rapidly. We show that MQVs can be stabilised by adding a small number of atoms of a second species to the vortex cores, and that…
