Title: Structure of vortex shedding past potential barriers moving in a Bose-Einstein condensate

Journal Article · · Journal of Experimental and Theoretical Physics

The problem of excitation of a homogeneous Bose-Einstein condensate by axially symmetric potential barriers moving with respect to the condensate with both supersonic and subsonic velocities is considered in terms of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation. The specific features of the structure of the vortex shedding past the barriers are analyzed for both regimes of motion.
