Generating and Manipulating Quantized Vortices in Highly Oblate Bose-Einstein Condensates
This dissertation presents several experimental methods that were devised to generate or manipulate quantized vortices in highly oblate dilute-gas Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs). Studies that involve single vortex dynamics, vortex-vortex interactions, and vortex-impurity interactions are essentia...
