AB - We study the collapse of an attractive Bose-Einstein condensate, where an unstable system evolves towards a singularity, by numerically solving the underlying cubic-quintic nonlinear Schrödinger equation. We find good agreement between our simulations and the atom-loss measurements with a K39 condensate. Our simulations reveal an interplay of weak collapse and the propensity of the system to form a hotspot and we uncover scaling laws that govern this behavior. We also identify promising signatures of the theoretically predicted, but so far experimentally elusive, elastic three-body interactions.
