Topological aspects in a two component Bose condensed system in neutron star

Abstract

By making use of Duan-Ge's decomposition theory of gauge potential and the Duan's topological current theory proposed by Prof. Duan Yi-Shi, we study a two component superfluid Bose condensed system, which is supposed being realized in the interior of neutron stars in the form of a coexistent neutron superfluid and protonic superconductor. We propose that this system possesses vortex lines. The topological charge of the vortex lines are characterized by the Hopf indices and the Brower degrees of $\phi$-mapping.Comment: 9 pages, no figure
