Potential singularity mechanism for the Euler equations

MP Brenner, S Hormoz, A Pumir - Physical Review Fluids, 2016 - APS
Singular solutions to the Euler equations could provide essential insight into the formation of
very small scales in highly turbulent flows. Previous attempts to find singular flow structures …

Irreversible dynamics of vortex reconnections in quantum fluids

A Villois, D Proment, G Krstulovic - Physical Review Letters, 2020 - APS
We statistically study vortex reconnections in quantum fluids by evolving different
realizations of vortex Hopf links using the Gross–Pitaevskii model. Despite the time …

Helicity, topology, and Kelvin waves in reconnecting quantum knots

P Clark Di Leoni, PD Mininni, ME Brachet - Physical Review A, 2016 - APS
Helicity is a topological invariant that measures the linkage and knottedness of lines, tubes,
and ribbons. As such, it has found myriads of applications in astrophysics, fluid dynamics …

A tent model of vortex reconnection under Biot–Savart evolution

Y Kimura, HK Moffatt - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2018 - cambridge.org
Vortex reconnection under Biot–Savart evolution is investigated geometrically and
numerically using a tent model consisting of vortex filaments initially in the form of two tilted …

Electromagnetic Vorticity in a Square‐Well Crystal System Described by a Supersymmetric Wave‐Equation

S Manzetti, A Trounev - Advanced Theory and Simulations, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
Vortices occur under all electromagnetic phenomena in quantized systems, as well as
macroscopic systems. In particular, vorticity in square‐wells is of great appeal to the …

Self-similar vortex reconnection

S Rica - Comptes Rendus Mécanique, 2019 - Elsevier
As shown by Crow in 1970, the evolution of two almost parallel vortex filaments with
opposite circulation exhibits a long-wave instability. Ultimately, the symmetric mode …

Dynamics, properties and spectrum of reconnecting vortex loops in superfluid helium
