Vortex Motion Quantifies Strong Dissipation in a Holographic Superfluid

Vortex Dissipation in Superfluid Third Sound Flows

Holographic vortex liquids and superfluid turbulence.

Superfluid turbulence is a fascinating phenomenon for which a satisfactory theoretical framework is lacking. Holographic duality provides a systematic approach to studying such quantum turbulence by mapping the dynamics of a strongly interacting quantum liquid into the dynamics of classical gravity. We use this gravitational description to numerically construct turbulent flows in a holographic ...

A Cantorian Superfluid Vortex and the Quantization of Planetary Motion

This article suggests a preliminary version of a Cantorian superfluid vortex hypothesis as a plausible model of nonlinear cosmology. Though some parts of the proposed theory resemble several elements of what have been proposed by Consoli (2000, 2002), Gibson (1999), Nottale (1996, 1997, 2001, 2002a), and Winterberg (2002b), it seems such a Cantorian superfluid vortex model instead of superfluid...

Vortex nucleation in superfluid

W F Vinen suggested in 1961 that the creation of quantized vortex line in superfluid 4He is impeded by an energy barrier. Measurements of the rate ν at which negative ions nucleate vortices in isotopically pure 4He have vindicated this idea. Barrier heights derived from the measured temperature dependence of ν are in good agreement with values calculated by Muirhead, Vinen and Donnelly (MVD) on...

Superfluid Vortex Nucleation

In an earlier paper 2] the author introduced a nonlinear Schrr odinger model for superruid that captures the process of mutual friction between the super-uid and normal uid components of helium II. Topological defects in the solution of this equation are identiied as superruid vortices, and in that paper, an asymp-totic dynamics for the vortices was derived in the case they are widely separated...
