Abstract
The dynamics of two-component Bose-Einstein condensates in rotating traps is investigated. In the Thomas-Fermi limit, equations of motion are derived showing multiple static solutions for a vortex-free condensate. Dynamic stability analysis of these solutions and comparison to truncated Wigner simulations enable us to identify the regimes for which vortex states will occur. In addition, our analysis predicts center-of-mass oscillations that are induced by interspecies interactions and affect each component separately. For attractive interspecies interactions, these oscillations lead to a stable symmetry-broken state.
