Abstract
We describe and benchmark a method to accurately calculate the quantum droplet states that can be produced from a dipolar Bose-Einstein condensate. Our approach also allows us to consider vortex states, where the atoms circulate around the long-axis of the filament-shaped droplet. We apply our approach to determine a phase diagram showing where self-bound droplets are stable against evaporation, and to quantify the energetics related to the fission of a vortex droplet into two nonvortex droplets.
