Spontaneous counterflow in rotating supersolids

Silvia Trabucco, Elena Poli, Massimo Mannarelli +1

Rotating supersolids challenge the conventional notion of superfluid flow: quantized vortices coexist with crystalline order arising from the system's intrinsic density modulation.…

Sound propagation in striped supersolid cold gases at zero temperature

Elena Poli, Giovanni I. Martone, Sandro Stringari +1

We present a unified hydrodynamic approach for the sound propagation in the stripe phases realized in ultracold dipolar gas and spin-orbit-coupled BEC platforms at zero temperature…

Synchronization in rotating supersolids

Elena Poli, Andrea Litvinov, Eva Casotti +6

Synchronization is ubiquitous in nature at various scales and fields. This phenomenon not only offers a window into the intrinsic harmony of complex systems, but also serves as a r…

Exploring pulsar glitches with dipolar supersolids

Thomas Bland, Francesca Ferlaino, Massimo Mannarelli +2

Glitches are sudden spin-up events that interrupt the gradual spin-down of rotating neutron stars. They are believed to arise from the rapid unpinning of vortices in the neutron st…

Excitations of a two-dimensional supersolid

Elena Poli, Danny Baillie, Francesca Ferlaino +1

We present a theoretical study of the excitations of the two-dimensional supersolid state of a Bose-Einstein condensate with either dipole-dipole interactions or soft-core interact…

Observation of vortices in a dipolar supersolid

Eva Casotti, Elena Poli, Lauritz Klaus +6

Supersolids are states of matter that spontaneously break two continuous symmetries: translational invariance due to the appearance of a crystal structure and phase invariance due…

Glitches in rotating supersolids

Elena Poli, Thomas Bland, Samuel J. M. White +4

Glitches, spin-up events in neutron stars, are of prime interest as they reveal properties of nuclear matter at subnuclear densities. We numerically investigate the glitch mechanis…

Observation of vortices and vortex stripes in a dipolar Bose-Einstein condensate

Lauritz Klaus, Thomas Bland, Elena Poli +6

Quantized vortices are the prototypical feature of superfluidity. Pervasive in all natural systems, vortices are yet to be observed in dipolar quantum gases. Here, we exploit the a…

Alternating-domain supersolids in binary dipolar condensates

Thomas Bland, Elena Poli, Luis A. Peña Ardila +3

Two-component dipolar condensates are now experimentally producible, and we theoretically investigate the nature of supersolidity in this system. We predict the existence of a bina…

Can angular oscillations probe superfluidity in dipolar supersolids?

Matthew A. Norcia, Elena Poli, Claudia Politi +6

Angular oscillations can provide a useful probe of the superfluid properties of a system. Such measurements have recently been applied to dipolar supersolids, which exhibit both de…

Maintaining supersolidity in one and two dimensions

Elena Poli, Thomas Bland, Claudia Politi +5

We theoretically investigate supersolidity in three-dimensional dipolar Bose-Einstein condensates. We focus on the role of trap geometry in determining the dimensionality of the re…

Two-Dimensional Supersolid Formation in Dipolar Condensates

Thomas Bland, Elena Poli, Claudia Politi +5

Dipolar condensates have recently been coaxed to form the long-sought supersolid phase. While one-dimensional supersolids may be prepared by triggering a roton instability, we find…

Two-dimensional supersolidity in a dipolar quantum gas

Matthew A. Norcia, Claudia Politi, Lauritz Klaus +6

Supersolidity -- a quantum-mechanical phenomenon characterized by the presence of both superfluidity and crystalline order -- was initially envisioned in the context of bulk solid…
