In spite of an appearance of some impressive recent results in understanding of the superfluid turbulence in HeII they fail to evaluate many characteristics of vortex tangle needed for both applications and fundamental study. Early we…

A theory is developed to describe the superfluid turbulence on the base of kinetics of the merging and splitting vortex loops. Because of very frequent reconnections the vortex loops (as a whole) do not live long enough to perform any…

Theory of superfluid $^4$He shows that, due to strong correlations and backflow effects, the density profile of a vortex line has the character of a density modulation and it is not a simple rarefaction region as found in clouds of cold…

Historically, there is little faith in particle tracking velocimetry (PTV) as a tool to make quantitative measurements of thermal counterflow in He II, since tracer particle motion is complicated by influences from the normal fluid,…

We have simulated the decay of thermal counterflow quantum turbulence from a statistically steady state at T=1.9[K], with the assumption that the normal fluid is at rest during the decay. The results are consistent with the predictions of…

We generate vortex tangles using a Hopf flow on a 3-sphere, in place of the standard torus defined by periodic boundary conditions. These tangles are highly anisotropic, with vortices tending to align along the flow direction. Standard…
