Our treatment is based on the Gross-Pitaevskii equation, with the full time dependent be- haviour of the trap systematically approximated to reduce the trapping potential to its dominant terms. We show that within some well specified approximations, the dynamic trap has solitary-wave solutions, and we identify a moving frame of reference which provides the most natural description of the system. In that frame eigenstates of the time-averaged orbiting potential trap can be found, all of which must be solitary-wave solutions with identical, circular centre of mass motion in the lab frame. The validity regime for our treatment is carefully defined, and is shown to be satisfied by existing experimental systems. 1. INTRODUCTION The Time-averaged Orbiting Potential (TOP) trap [1] was an important tool in the realization of Bose-Einstein condensates, and it remains a common method for mag- netically trapping atoms. Early theoretical descriptions of the TOP trap used two approximations: the adiabatic approximation, which assumes that the magnetic dipoles of the atoms align instantaneously to the magnetic field, and the time-average approximation, where the time dy- namics of the trapping fields are neglected on the time scale of the motion of the trapped atoms. Under these as- sumptions, the TOP trap is represented by a static, har- monic potential and the condensate eigenstates are rela- tively easily calculated (usually by numerical means) and are s
