Vortex structures in atomic spin-1 Bose-Einstein condensates
This thesis is concerned with the structure and stability of vortices in spin-1 atomic Bose-Einstein Condensates (BECs) in rotating, optical traps. We numerically study these vortex structures using a classical mean-field theory which allows atomic interactions to change the local expectation value...
