We study the properties of singly-quantized linear vortices in the supersolid phase of a dipolar Bose-Einstein condensate at zero temperature modeling $^{164}$Dy atoms. The system is extended in the $x-y$ plane and confined by a harmonic…
Based on a velocity formula derived by matched asymptotic expansion, we investigate the dynamics of a circular vortex ring in an axisymmetric Bose-Einstein condensate in the Thomas-Fermi limit. The trajectory for an axisymmetrically placed…
At the nucleus of a superconducting vortex is a small, circular region where superconductivity is destroyed. Like an atomic nucleus, this core may become deformed, and such distortions can have important consequences in non-equilibrium…
When a vortex refracts surface waves, the momentum flux carried by the waves changes direction and the waves induce a reaction force on the vortex. We study experimentally the resulting vortex distortion. Incoming surface gravity waves…
