Superfluid signatures in a dissipative quantum point contact

MZ Huang, J Mohan, AM Visuri, P Fabritius, M Talebi… - Physical Review Letters, 2023 - APS
We measure superfluid transport of strongly interacting fermionic lithium atoms through a
quantum point contact with local, spin-dependent particle loss. We observe that the …

Mass-driven vortex collisions in flat superfluids

A Richaud, G Lamporesi, M Capone, A Recati - Physical Review A, 2023 - APS
Quantum vortices are often endowed with an effective inertial mass, due, for example, to
massive particles in their cores. Such “massive vortices” display new phenomena beyond …

Quantized vortices are the hallmark of superfluidity, and are often sought out as the first
observable feature in new superfluid systems. Following the recent experimental …

Critical current throughout the BCS-BEC crossover with the inclusion of pairing fluctuations

L Pisani, V Piselli, GC Strinati - Physical Review A, 2024 - APS
The present work aims at providing a systematic analysis of the current density versus

Controlled flow of excitations in a ring-shaped network of Rydberg atoms

F Perciavalle, D Rossini, T Haug, O Morsch, L Amico - Physical Review A, 2023 - APS
Highly excited Rydberg atoms are a powerful platform for quantum simulation and
information processing. Here, we propose atomic ring networks to study chiral currents of …

Universality of the superfluid Kelvin-Helmholtz instability by single-vortex tracking

D Hernandez-Rajkov, N Grani, F Scazza… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2023 - arxiv.org
At the interface between two fluid layers in relative motion, infinitesimal fluctuations can be
exponentially amplified, inducing vorticity and the breakdown of the laminar flow. This …

Ring Bose-Einstein condensate in a cavity: Chirality detection and rotation sensing

N Pradhan, P Kumar, R Kanamoto, TN Dey… - Physical Review A, 2024 - APS
Recently, a method has been proposed to detect the rotation of a ring Bose-Einstein
condensate, in situ, in real-time, and with minimal destruction by using a cavity driven with …
