What I mean by that - is it possible to model a system and somehow obtain them as a result? (in FEMM 4.2 or Comsol for example)

Or is their forming still not yet explored enough?

Could you give us some context?
Are you talking about vortices in a type II superconductor?

Here is his reply to my PM to him asking the same thing:

Those are the things that make type-II superconductors not only levitate over magnets but also stick (without touching) to them.
