Ferrofluidity in a Two-Component Dipolar Bose-Einstein Condensate
Ferrofluidity in a Two-Component Dipolar Bose-Einstein Condensate
It is shown that the interface in a two-component Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) in which one component exhibits a dipole-dipole interaction spontaneously forms patterns similar to those formed in a magnetic liquid subject to a magnetic field. A hexagonal pattern, hysteretic behavior, and soliton-like structure are numerically demonstrated. A phenomenon similar …
