Analogues of D-branes in Bose-Einstein condensates
arXiv:1002.4265 · doi:10.1007/JHEP11(2010)068
Abstract
We demonstrate theoretically that analogues of D-branes in string theory can be realized in rotating, phase-separated, two-component Bose-Einstein condensates and that they are observable using current experimental techniques. This study raises the possibility of simulating D-branes in the laboratory.
