Landau versus Spin Superfluidity in Spinor Bose-Einstein Condensates
H. Flayac, H. Tercas, D. D. Solnyshkov +1
We consider a spin-1/2 Bose-Einstein condensate prepared initially in a single spin projection. The two channels of excitations existing in such a system (namely density and spin w…
Half-solitons in a polariton quantum fluid behave like magnetic monopoles
R. Hivet, H. Flayac, D. D. Solnyshkov +8
Monopoles are magnetic charges, point-like sources of magnetic field. Contrary to electric charges they are absent in Maxwell's equations and have never been observed as fundamenta…
Oblique Half-Solitons and their Generation in Exciton-Polariton Condensates
Hugo Flayac, Dmitry Solnyshkov, Guillaume Malpuech
We describe oblique half-solitons, a new type of topological defects in a two dimensional spinor Bose Einstein condensate. A realistic protocol based on the optical spin Hall effec…
Phonon-mediated Josephson oscillations in excitonic and polaritonic condensates
E. B. Magnusson, H. Flayac, G. Malpuech +1
We analyze theoretically the role of the exciton-phonon interactions in phenomena related to the Josephson effect between two spatially separated exciton and exciton-polariton cond…
