• We propose a way to create mobile, self-supporting, 3D solitary matter waves.
• The stability is achieved by changing the dispersion law to quadratic.
• The change in the dispersion law is achieved by shaking a lattice.
• We outline an experimental scheme for realizing such objects.
• Such objects could be very useful for building atomic Sagnac interferometers.
In this Letter, we show that a three-dimensional Bose–Einstein solitary wave can become stable if the dispersion law is changed from quadratic to quartic. We suggest a way to realize the quartic dispersion, using shaken optical lattices. Estimates show that the resulting solitary waves can occupy as little as ∼1/20∼1/20-th of the Brillouin zone in each of the three directions and contain as many as N=103N=103 atoms, thus representing a fully mobile macroscopic three-dimensional object.
