Observation of 2D dam break flow and a gaseous phase of solitons in a photon fluid
Ludovica Dieli, Davide Pierangeli, Eugenio DelRe +1
We report the observation of a two-dimensional dam break flow of a photon fluid in a nonlinear optical crystal. By precisely shaping the amplitude and phase of the input wave, we i…

Dark matter condensates as highly nonlocal solitons: instability in the Schwarzschild metric and laboratory analog
Ludovica Dieli, Claudio Conti
Theories on the bosonic nature of dark matter are a promising alternative to the cold dark matter model. Here we consider a dark matter halo in the state of a Bose-Einstein condens…
