摘要
We use a Thomas-Fermi approximation that includes the leading kinetic terms due to fluid motion to estimate analytically the critical velocity for the formation of vortex pairs in harmonically trapped Bose-Einstein condensates. We find rough agreement between this analytical estimate and recent experiments on trapped sodium gas condensates.
