For a condensate with kinetic operator , its particle current is with the displayed velocity. This follows by subtracting the Gross–Pitaevskii equation from its complex conjugate. More generally, in units where the kinetic operator is , the current velocity is . The complex argument gradient and current velocity coincide only when .
