Elementary excitation families and their frequency ordering in   cylindrically symmetric Bose-Einstein condensates
  We present a systematic classification of the elementary excitations of Bose-Einstein condensates in cylindrical traps in terms of their shapes. The classification generalizes the concept of families of excitations first identified by Hutchinson and Zaremba (1998) Phys. Rev. A 57 1280 by introducing a second classification number that allows all possible modes to be assigned to a family. We relate the energy ordering of the modes to their family classification, and provide a simple model which explains the relationship.
