Experimental scheme generates medium vortex solitons in a controlled environment, suggesting new ways to study fundamental particles.
Within the Continuous Elastic Medium Theory (CET), all elementary particle-like structures are interpreted as topological solitons formed by nonlinear deformation of the universal continuous elastic background medium. Among these localized configurations, vortex solitons with circulating medium deformation possess intrinsic rotational degrees of freedom, closely corresponding to spin and many topological properties observed in fundamental particles. Natural vortex solitons emerge under spontaneous cosmic evolution, while controlled artificial generation remains a critical experimental target to validate CET. This work proposes an experimental scheme to excite medium vortex solitons: employing high-frequency laser irradiation, precise phase modulation, and field superposition at solid material interfaces. The material boundary provides a localized gradient condition of background medium deformation. Periodic laser modulation imposes oscillatory perturbation, and multi-beam phase engineering constructs closed circulating strain distribution. When perturbation amplitude, frequency and relative phase reach critical thresholds, nonlinear medium dynamics support the formation of stable self-confined vortex solitons. We analyze critical threshold conditions, phase matching constraints, and laser parameter windows. If experimentally realized, this setup enables controllable generation, manipulation and measurement of medium vortex solitons in laboratory environments. The platform offers direct experimental verification for core predictions of CET regarding topological solitary structures, modal coupling and rotational degrees of freedom.
