  • Title: Giant vortex lattice deformations in rapidly rotating bose-einstein condensates.
    Author: Simula TP, Penckwitt AA, Ballagh RJ.
    Journal: Phys Rev Lett; 2004 Feb 13; 92(6):060401. PubMed ID: 14995219.
    Abstract:
    We have performed numerical simulations of giant vortex structures in rapidly rotating Bose-Einstein condensates within the Gross-Pitaevskii formalism. We reproduce the qualitative features, such as oscillation of the giant vortex core area, formation of toroidal density hole, and the precession of giant vortices, observed in the recent experiment [Phys. Rev. Lett., ()]]. We provide a mechanism which quantitatively explains the observed core oscillation phenomenon. We demonstrate the clear distinction between the mechanism of atom removal and a repulsive pinning potential in creating giant vortices. In addition, we have been able to simulate the transverse Tkachenko vortex lattice vibrations.
