Abstract:

We present a numerical calculation of the velocity field of an off-axis vortex within a harmonic trapping potential. We consider a condensate with a large number of particles which, in spite of being in the Thomas-Fermi regime, possesses a non-totally-negligible vortex core size. Via a simple, yet realistic, modeling of the vortex-state density, we derive, by treating the equation of continuity outside and inside the vortex core, respective equations for the velocity field and the vortex precession velocity. We find that the vortex precession velocity is given by two contributions: the background velocity field evaluated around the border of the core and another term which depends on the core shape. Our findings concerning the velocity field outside the vortex core are in good agreement with previous theoretical predictions in a narrow region around it, while far away from the vortex we observe a field with a large asymmetry with respect to the vortex position. We show that a better approximation may be obtained by adding the velocity field produced by an antivortex located outside the condensate. © 2008 The American Physical Society.
