Lin We demonstrate coupling between the atomic spin- and orbital-angular momentum (OAM) of the atom’s center-of-mass motion in a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC). The coupling is induced by Raman-dressing lasers with a Laguerre-Gaussian beam and creates coreless vortices in an F = 1 Rb 87 spinor BEC. We obse... [Phys. Rev.
