| Popis: | We observed a new mechanism for vortex nucleation in Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) subject to synthetic magnetic fields. We made use of a strong synthetic magnetic field initially localized between a pair of merging BECs to rapidly create vortices in the bulk of the merged condensate. Unlike previous implementations and in agreement with our Gross-Pitaevskii equation simulations, our dynamical process rapidly injects vortices into our system's bulk, and with initial number in excess of the system's equilibrium vortex number.
