Spontaneous vortices in the formation of Bose-Einstein condensates
C. N. Weiler, T. W. Neely, D. R. Scherer +3
Phase transitions are ubiquitous in nature, ranging from protein folding and denaturisation, to the superconductor-insulator quantum phase transition, to the decoupling of forces i…

Vortex Formation by Merging and Interference of Multiple Trapped Bose-Einstein Condensates
David R. Scherer
An apparatus for producing atomic-gas Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) of 87-Rb atoms is described. The apparatus produces 87-Rb BECs in a dual-chamber vacuum system that incorpora…

Vortex Formation by Interference of Multiple Trapped Bose-Einstein Condensates
David R. Scherer, Chad N. Weiler, Tyler W. Neely +1
We report observations of vortex formation as a result of merging together multiple Rb Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) in a confining potential. In this experiment, a trapp…
