We derive two new forms of the K\'arm\'an-Howarth-Monin equation for decaying compressible Hall magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence. We test them on results of a weakly-compressible, two-dimensional, moderate-Reynolds-number Hall MHD…
We investigate non-equilibrium turbulence where the non-dimensionalised dissipation coefficient $C_{\varepsilon}$ scales as $C_{\varepsilon} \sim Re_{M}^{m}/Re_{\ell}^{n}$ with $m\approx 1 \approx n$ ($Re_M$ and $Re_{\ell}$ are global/inlet…

Turbulence may appear as a complex process with a multitude of scales and flow patterns, but still obeys simple physical principles such as the conservation of momentum, of energy, and the maximum entropy principle. The latter states that…
