“…We consider an ultracold gas of 164 Dy bosons confined in an optical trap. Appropriately tuning the s-wave interaction a s , it is possible to drive the system into a supersolid phase [47]. Rotating 2D supersolids can host quantized vortices [46,[48][49][50], thus allowing us to investigate the vortex dynamics underlying pulsar glitches.…”

Glitches are sudden spin-up events that interrupt the gradual spin-down of rotating neutron stars. They are believed to arise from the rapid unpinning of vortices in the neutron star inner crust. The analogy between the inner crust of neutron stars and dipolar supersolids allows to investigate glitches. Employing such analogy, we numerically analyze the vortex trapping mechanism and how the matter density distribution influences glitches. These results pave the way for the quantum simulation of celestial bodies in laboratories.
