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 …

In zero magnetic field the ground-state manifold of a ferromagnetic spin-1 condensate is SO
(3) and exhibits Z 2 vortices as topological defects. We investigate the phase-ordering …

We consider the formation of order in a quasi-two-dimensional antiferromagnetic spin-1
condensate quenched from an easy-axis to an easy-plane nematic phase. We define the …

We report a stable magnetic domain wall in a uniform ferromagnetic spin-1 condensate,
characterized by the magnetization having a dark soliton profile with nonvanishing …

A two-dimensional spin-1 Bose gas exhibits two Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT)
transitions in the easy-plane ferromagnetic phase. The higher-temperature transition is …

Ferromagnetic spin-1 Bose-Einstein condensates in the broken-axisymmetric phase support
polar-core spin vortices (PCVs), which are intimately linked to the nonequilibrium dynamics …

We study the dynamics of a quasi-two-dimensional (2D) spin-orbit-coupled ferromagnetic
Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) under a linear Zeeman magnetic field disturbed by a …

A spin-1 condensate with antiferromagnetic interactions supports nematic spin vortices in
the easy-plane polar phase. These vortices have a 2 π winding of the nematic director with a …

Coarsening dynamics, the canonical theory of phase ordering following a quench across a
symmetry breaking phase transition, is thought to be driven by the annihilation of topological …

The phase diagram of lowest-energy vortices in the polar phase of spin-1 Bose-Einstein
condensates is investigated theoretically. Singly quantized vortices are categorized by the …
