Extended Data Fig. 3: Repeatability of the vortex generation protocol.
From: Observation of vortices and vortex stripes in a dipolar condensate

Each row shows the simulated image (a, b, c) and the corresponding vertical TOF images from independent experimental runs (ai, bi, ci) for a different rotation time: ta = 127 ms, tb = 207 ms, and tc = 741 ms. The rotation frequency is Ω = 0.74ω⊥ with the trap frequencies being ωt = 2π × [50.7(1), 50.8(1), 129(1)] Hz. The magnetic field value is \(B =5.333(5)\,{{{\rm{G}}}}\). For the simulation the scattering length used is 112 a0, the trap frequencies are (50, 50, 150) Hz, the condensed atom number is N = 8000 and the rotation frequency is 0.75ω⊥.
