Producing flow in racetrack atom circuits by stirring
We present a study of how macroscopic flow can be produced in Bose-Einstein condensates confined in a ``racetrack'' potential by stirring with a wide rectangular barrier. This potential consists of two half-circle channels separated by straight channels of length $L$ and reduces to a ring potential if $L=0$. We present …
