Large negative velocity gradients in Burgers turbulence.
We consider one-dimensional Burgers equation driven by large-scale white-in-time random force. The tails of the velocity gradients probability distribution function (PDF) are analyzed by saddle point approximation in the path integral describing the velocity statistics. The structure of the saddle-point (instanton), that is, the velocity field configuration realizing the maximum of probability,...
متن کاملDispersive hydrodynamics in viscous fluid conduits.
The evolution of the interface separating a conduit of light, viscous fluid rising buoyantly through a heavy, more viscous, exterior fluid at small Reynolds numbers is governed by the interplay between nonlinearity and dispersion. Previous authors have proposed an approximate model equation based on physical arguments, but a precise theoretical treatment for this two-fluid system with a free bo...
متن کاملRelativistic viscous hydrodynamics, conformal invariance, and holography
We consider second-order viscous hydrodynamics in conformal field theories at finite temperature. We show that conformal invariance imposes powerful constraints on the form of the second-order corrections. By matching to the AdS/CFT calculations of correlators, and to recent results for Bjorken flow obtained by Heller and Janik, we find three (out of five) second-order transport coefficients in...
متن کاملDissipative effects from transport and viscous hydrodynamics
We compare 2 → 2 covariant transport theory and causal IsraelStewart hydrodynamics in 2+1D longitudinally boost invariant geometry with RHIC-like initial conditions and a conformal ε = 3p equation of state. The pressure evolution in the center of the collision zone and the final differential elliptic flow v2(pT ) from the two theories agree remarkably well for a small shear viscosity to entropy...
متن کاملViscous Quantum Hydrodynamics and Parameter-Elliptic Systems
The viscous quantum hydrodynamic model derived for semiconductor simulation is studied in this paper. The principal part of the vQHD system constitutes a parameter–elliptic operator provided that boundary conditions satisfying the Shapiro–Lopatinskii criterion are specified. We classify admissible boundary conditions and show that this principal part generates an analytic semigroup, from which ...
