Vortices in Atomic Bose-Einstein Condensates: an Introduction
Sankalpa Ghosh
Abstract
The occurrence of vortices in atomic Bose-Einstein condensates (BEC) enables a description of their superfluid behaviour. In this article we present a pedagogical introduction to the vortex physics in trapped atomic BECs. The mechanism of the vortex nucleation in an atomic BEC is discussed in detail. We also discuss a recently proposed approach which treats the problem of vortex nucleation using a one-particle Schrodinger equation with non-local and chiral boundary conditions.
