We solve the time-dependent Gross-Pitaevskii in 2-D to simulate the flow of an object through a dilute Bose condensate trapped in a harmonic well. We demonstrate vortex formation and analyze the process in terms of the accumulation of…
One of the main questions regarding planet formation is how to cross the metre-scale barrier. Several theories rely on the formation of dust clumps dense enough to collapse under their own gravity. Vortices are promising candidate sites of…
