For a system at a temperature of absolute zero, all thermal fluctuations are frozen out, while quantum fluctuations prevail. These microscopic quantum fluctuations can induce a macroscopic phase transition in the ground state of a many-body…
Wave-packet interference is investigated within the complex quantum Hamilton-Jacobi formalism using a hydrodynamic description. Quantum interference leads to the formation of the topological structure of quantum caves in space-time Argand…
A convenient method to create vortices in meta-stable vortex-free superflow of 3He-B is to irradiate with thermal neutrons. The vortices are then formed in a rapid non-equilibrium process with very distinctive characteristics. Two models…
Pressure reduction in liquids may result in vaporization and bubble formation. This thermodynamic process is termed cavitation. It is commonly observed in hydraulic machinery, ship propellers, and even in medical therapy within the human…

Like many quantum fluids, superfluid helium-4 (He II) can be considered as a mixture of two miscible fluid components: an inviscid superfluid and a viscous normal fluid consisting of thermal quasiparticles [1]. A mutual friction between the…
Turbulence in superfluids depends crucially on the dissipative damping in vortex motion. This is observed in the B phase of superfluid 3He where the dynamics of quantized vortices changes radically in character as a function of temperature.…
I study the dynamics of a superfluid vortex in a random potential, as in the inner crust of a neutron star. Below a critical flow velocity of the ambient superfluid, a vortex is effectively immobilized by lattice forces even in the limit of…
We develope a theory of sound in a relativistic superfluid with quantum vortices. The vortices are presented by vortex fluid. For a particular separable model we find new modes of which a non-relativistic superfluid is deprived.
We study a quantum phase transition in a system of dipoles confined in a stack of $N$ identical one-dimensional lattices (tubes) polarized perpendicularly to the lattices. In this arrangement the intra-lattice interaction is purely…
