Quantized vortices are a defining feature of superfluid systems under rotation and have been extensively investigated in ultracold atom experiments with isotropic contact interactions. However, they have never been observed in dipolar quantum gases. We here report on the creation of vortices in a strongly magnetic Bose-Einstein-Condensate (BEC) of 162Dy atoms. We are imparting angular momentum to the BEC by the means of magnetostirring, a novel technique making use of the alignment of the dipolar atoms along the rotating magnetic field. We show that for a critical rotation frequency, the dipolar BEC starts to nucleate vortices and that the vortices arrange in stripes along the direction of the magnetic field during the rotations. The next key step will be extending the concept of magnetostirring to the recently observed supersolid states and study the vortex formation in this very exotic state of quantum matter.
