These axes can be rotated and we have observed Bose-Einstein condensates of 87^Rb with a rotating ellipsoidal shape. Under these conditions it has been predicted that quantized vortices form and are stable.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1999-11-12T17:33:14.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "bose-einstein condensation", "rotating anisotropic", "time-orbiting potential trap", "principal axes", "bose-einstein condensates" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 12, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
