Resonance phenomena in vortex-antivortex collisions
Maximilian Bachmaier, Andrzej Wereszczynski
In this work, we provide a full map of scattering scenarios between a Nielsen-Olesen vortex and antivortex. Importantly, in the deep type II regime, such a collision reveals a chao…

From BPS geodesics to mode-driven dynamics in the scattering of multiple BPS vortices
Alberto Alonso-Izquierdo, Maximilian Bachmaier, Andrzej Wereszczynski
We analyze how the geodesic motion in the 3- and 4-vortex sectors of the Abelian-Higgs model at critical coupling is deformed by the excitation of a massive bound mode. We find tha…
