Ring dark solitons and vortex necklaces in Bose-Einstein condensates

Theocharis, G; Frantzeskakis, D J; Kevrekidis, P G; Malomed, Boris A; Kivshar, Yuri

Description

We introduce the concept of ring dark solitons in Bose-Einstein condensates. We show that relatively shallow rings are not subject to the snake instability, but a deeper ring splits into a robust ringlike cluster of vortex pairs, which performs oscillations in the radial and azimuthal directions, following the dynamics of the original ring soliton.
