“…In the last two decades, the phase transition of many-body systems to a BE condensed state has become feasible within a great variety of different physical systems such as solid-state light-matter systems, various species of atoms and molecules and for gases of photons or classical waves [3][4][5][6]. Among the most intriguing properties of all these condensed coherent matter states are regimes of frictionless flow (superfluidity) [7] below a critical velocity [8,9] or the response to motion via elementary excitations such as quantized vortex rings, quantum vortices and lattices thereof, dark and bright solitons [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16] depending on the nature of the entities constituting them, such as variable inter-particle interactions due to Feshbach resonances when applying certain external fields in atomic and polariton condensates [17,18] or local particle sources and sinks in non-equilibrium condensates of exciton-polaritons [4,19] or atoms [20]. In turn the out of equilibrium aspect of open quantum systems as well as the nature of interactions between the coherent particles is key for the possible pattern formations in those condensates and thus the properties of its excitations [2,4,14].…”
