Solitary waves in trapped quantum droplets
POSTER
Abstract
We unravel the existence and stability properties of dark soliton solutions as they extend from the regime of trapped quantum droplets towards the Thomas-Fermi limit in homonuclear symmetric Bose mixtures. Leveraging a phase-plane analysis, we identify the regimes of existence of different types of quantum droplets and subsequently examine the possibility of black and gray solitons and kink-type structures in this system. Moreover, we employ the Landau dynamics approach to extract an analytical estimate of the oscillation frequency of a single dark soliton in a trapped droplet. Within the extended Gross-Pitaevskii framework, we find that the single soliton immersed in a droplet is stable, while multisoliton configurations exhibit parametric windows of oscillatory instabilities. Our results pave the way for studying dynamical features of nonlinear multisoliton excitations in a droplet environment in contemporary experimental settings.
