Breaking of Chiral Symmetry and Spontaneous Rotation in a Spinor Bose-Einstein Condensate
arXiv:cond-mat/0512216 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.96.065302
Abstract
We show that a spin-1 Bose-Einstein condensate with ferromagnetic interactions spontaneously generates a topological spin texture, in which the m = \pm 1 components of the magnetic sublevels form vortices with opposite circulations. This phenomenon originates from an interplay between ferromagnetic interactions and spin conservation.
