Stable vortex in Bose-Einstein condensate dark matter

Abstract: The nature of dark matter (DM) is one of the most fascinating unresolved challenges of modern physics. One of the perspective hypotheses suggests that DM consists of ultralight bosonic particles in the state of Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC). The superfluid nature of BEC must dramatically affect the properties of DM including quantization of the angular momentum. Angular momentum quantum in the form of a vortex line is expected to produce a considerable impact on the luminous matter in galaxies including densi… Show more

“…The central object of our study, the vortex, has a vanishing wavefunction at the vortex line, with a quantized circular flow around the vortex line [1]. According to the recent numerical studies [21,22] only the non-rotating soliton and single-charged vortex are stable, even being strongly perturbed. In the present work, we consider a DM halo, which consists of two regions -core and isothermal envelope, while the core could be either a soliton or a single-charged vortex.…”

“…The time-dependent Gross-Pitaevskii equation appears in a broad range of physical systems, beyond condensed matter physics. For example, in combination with a gravitational trapping potential it can model Dark Matter as a Bose-Einstein condensate [25,26]. Using the Madelung transformation, the equation can be sent into a system of equations that describe a barotropic-type fluid, which can model codimension two membranes in higher dimensions [27].…”
