22. The rotation of ψ(θ) back to the real domain is also employed for the determination of the factor by which the wave function has to be rescaled after each propagation step, in order to satisfy the normalization condition 16.

25. This behavior can be straightforwardly reproduced by integrating, with a Runge-Kutta solver, the ordinary differential equation corresponding to the stationary Gross-Pitaevskii equation 13 in presence of a complex energy E=μ-i/2Γ.
