"Classical" Vortex Nucleation in Superflow Through Small Orifices
Ajit Srivastava, Michael Stone
Abstract
We report on numerical solutions of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation for two-dimensional flow of a superfluid condensate through a small orifice. Above a critical velocity of about 30\% of the speed of sound, cavitation occurs in the throat of the orifice. The cavitating bubbles form the cores of singly quantized vortices which detach from the boundary and are convected downstream.
