Beschreibung:
  • We create supercurrents in annular two-dimensional Bose gases through a temperature quench of the normal-to-superfluid phase transition. We detect the magnitude and the direction of these supercurrents by measuring spiral patterns resulting from the interference of the cloud with a central reference disk. These
    measurements demonstrate the stochastic nature of the supercurrents.We further measure their distribution for different quench times and compare it with predictions based on the Kibble-Zurek mechanism.
