Interactions and scattering of quantum vortices in a polariton fluid

Interactions and scattering of quantum vortices in a polariton fluid

Superfluid flow around a vortex is quantized so that vortices become discrete, particle-like defects, with interactions mediated by the surrounding fluid. Here, the authors use a polariton system to experimentally investigate the behavior and scattering of vortices in a two-component superfluid.
