Dissipationless shock waves in repulsive Bose-Einstein condensates

Abstract

We consider formation of dissipationless shock waves in Bose-Einstein condensates with repulsive interaction between atoms. It is shown that big enough initial inhomogeneity of density leads to wave breaking phenomenon followed by generation of a train of dark solitons. Analytical theory is confirmed by numerical simulations.
