Funding Acknowledgements

We thank Dr Tapio Simula for authorizing the use of his GPE solver in this paper. The code operateswithin the real-space product, finite-element, discrete-variable spatial representation and employs an explicit, fourth-order, split-operator technique to propagate the solution in time. The research was supported by funding from the Australian Research Council's Discovery Program. BH acknowledges support from Polish National Science Centre (NCN) grant SONATA BIS 2015/18/E/ST9/00577.
