Bound states between solitons in a Bose-Einstein condensate, previously predicted to remain stable, are now shown to disintegrate due to internal spin interactions. A new classical model accurately predicts these disintegrations and the resulting exchange of particles between atomic states in most scenarios. This offers a computationally efficient method for simulating soliton dynamics, improving upon existing approaches.
