We propose a setup with ultracold atomic gases that can be used to make a
nonrelativistic superstring in four spacetime dimensions. In particular, we
consider for the creation of the superstring a fermionic atomic gas that is
trapped in the core of a vortex in a Bose-Einstein condensate. We explain the
required tuning of experimental parameters to achieve supersymmetry between the
fermionic atoms and the bosonic modes describing the oscillations in the vortex
position. Furthermore, we discuss the experimental consequences of
supersymmetry.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures; published versio
