Abstract
We are pointing out relevant anisotropic effects, related to spatial separation and miscibility, due to dipole-dipole interactions in rotating binary dipolar Bose-Einstein condensates by considering symmetric () and asymmetric () dipolar mixtures. The binary mixtures are kept in a strong pancake-shaped trap, with repulsive two-body interactions and fixed rotation, modeled by an effective two-dimensional coupled Gross-Pitaevskii equation. The anisotropy of the dipolar interactions on miscibility and vortex-lattice structures is studied by tuning the dipole-dipole interaction (DDI) from repulsive to attractive by varying the dipole polarization angle. A clear spatial separation is verified in the densities for attractive DDI, when the inter- to intraspecies contact interaction ratio is larger than 1, being angular for symmetric mixtures and radial for asymmetric ones. The signature of hidden vortices is evidenced in the particular dipolar-symmetric case. Another relevant outcome is the observed mass-imbalance sensibility verified by the vortex-pattern binary distributions in symmetric and asymmetric-dipolar mixtures, which requires the use of a relation for nonhomogeneous mixtures to estimate the miscibility of two components.
