International audienceThe aim of this paper is to build and validate some explicit high-order schemes, both in space and time, for simulating the dynamics of systems of nonlinear Schrödinger /Gross-Pitaevskii equations. The method is based on the combination of high-order IMplicit-EXplicit (IMEX) schemes in time and Fourier pseudo-spectral approximations in space. The resulting IMEXSP schemes are highly accurate, efficient and easy to implement. They are also robust when used in conjunction with an adaptive time stepping strategy and appear as an interesting alternative to time-splitting pseudo-spectral (TSSP) schemes. Finally, a complete numerical study is developed to investigate the properties of the IMEXSP schemes, in comparison with TSSP schemes, for one-and two-components systems of Gross-Pitaevskii equations
