Spin effects in the particle current of Bose–Einstein condensates in synthetic gauge fields

Hugo Bencomo Martín and Antonio Muñoz Mateo

Manuscript submitted to Physical Review A

We examine how spin contributes to the particle-current density of pseudospin-1/2 Bose–Einstein condensates. It restores the local classical Hall drift in the non-interacting ground state, while interactions reduce the spin-to-orbital current ratio and alter the circulation.

One-dimensional cross section of spin and orbital probability currents

Bachelor's Thesis: Spin Effects in Particle Currents

Bachelor's thesis · 10/10 with Honors · 2026

The thesis studies a spin contribution often omitted from non-relativistic particle currents. It recovers the classical Hall drift in the non-interacting ground state, while interactions break the spin–orbital cancellation. This work led to the preprint above.

Numerical frame of a supermassive black-hole binary inspiral

Solving the Final Parsec Problem with Self-Interacting Dark Matter

IAC internship · 2026

During my IAC internship, I reviewed how a thermalized self-interacting dark-matter core may replenish the depleted spike around a supermassive black-hole binary and sustain dynamical friction.
