Abstract:
The structure and dynamics of the domain walls separating segregated condensates in trapped mixtures of repulsive Bose-Einstein condensates are studied. Our work reveals that, under fairly general conditions, these domain walls behave as independent dynamical entities, which allows us to identify them as constituting a novel class of multicomponent solitons in Bose-Einstein condensates.
