t686 Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 (edited) What if the vortex laser tunnelled through a condensate and created long vortices to the center. The condensate may have vortices in them if the tunnels that the laser create by spinning about the axis of the central vortex in the laser. If many beams are directed at a spherical collection of condensate and the condensate were magnetic with containment, the space between beams might bulge along the length of parallel vortices, due to repulsive effects of a magnetic condensate. Then the bulge would form tori in the vortices, and an array of tori may form. They create vortices in the lab by stirring the condensate in circular paths with a regular laser. The vortex laser, however, spins along the axis of the central beam. Edited April 28, 2017 by t686 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swansont Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 ! Moderator Note If you have questions about Bose-Einstein condensates, you are free to ask them in the physics section, as long as it is about BECs only. Any connections with a computer, however, and it's off-limits, as you have been told. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
