Abstract
We propose a protocol to excite the Goldstone modes of a supersolid dipolar Bose-Einstein condensed gas confined in a ring geometry. By abruptly removing an applied periodic modulation proportional to cos(φ), where φ is the azimuthal angle, we explore the resulting oscillations of the gas by solving the extended Gross-Pitaevskii equation. The value of the two longitudinal sound velocities exhibited in the supersolid phase are analyzed using the hydrodynamic theory of supersolids at zero temperature, which explicitly takes into account both the superfluid and the crystal nature of the system. This approach allows for the determination of the layer compressibility modulus as well as of the superfluid fraction, f_{S}, in agreement with the Leggett estimate of the nonclassical moment of inertia.
