Kibble-Zurek mechanism in a spin-1 Bose-Einstein condensate
The Kibble-Zurek mechanism (KZM) primarily characterizes scaling in the formation of topological defects when a system crosses a continuous phase transition. The KZM was first used to study the evolution of the early universe, describing the topology of cosmic domains and strings as the symmetry-bre...
