Creation and robustness of quantized vortices in a dipolar supersolid when crossing the superfluid-to-supersolid transition

Abstract

In this numerical study, the authors propose a realistic protocol for proving quantized vortices in dipolar supersolids, in which they are nucleated in the supersolid and observed after crossing the phase transition to the superfluid phase. This approach is of interest to ongoing experiments, allowing for probing of the superfluid character of dipolar supersolids.
