When a fluid jet strikes an inclined solid surface at normal incidence, gravity creates a flow pattern with a thick outer rim resembling a parabola and reminiscent of a hydraulic jump. There appears to be little theory or experiments…
Bubbles bursting at the surface of the ocean produce drops that heavily influence ocean-atmosphere interactions. One of the mechanisms through which drops are formed is called jet drop production, where the collapse of the bubble cavity…
In this Brief Communication we study experimentally the flow regimes that appear in co-axial air-water jets discharging into a stagnant air atmosphere and we propose a simple explanation for their occurrence based on linear, local,…
Worthington jets ejected after the impact of a solid or liquid object on a liquid surface have extensive applications in natural, industrial, and scientific contexts. Here, we present a combined experimental and theoretical investigation of…
Observations of both gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and active galactic nuclei (AGNs) point to the idea that some relativistic jets are suffocated by their environment before we observe them. In these "choked" jets, all the jet's kinetic energy is…
A three-dimensional round liquid jet within a low-speed coaxial gas flow is numerically simulated and explained via vortex dynamics ($\lambda_2$ method). The instabilities on the liquid-gas interface reflect well the vortex interactions…
Applying an impulsive force to a powder layer shaped with a concave surface generates a sharp powder jet. This phenomenon has been proposed as a method for evaluating the flowability of powders from small amount of samples. In this study,…
The liquid cone-jet mode can be produced upon stimulation by a co-flowing gas sheath. Most applications deal with the jet breakup, leading to either of two droplet generation regimes: jetting and dripping. The cone-jet flow pattern is…
Fast liquid jets, called micro-jets, are produced within cavitation bubbles experiencing an aspherical collapse. Here we review micro-jets of different origins, scales and appearances, and propose a unified framework to describe their…
The idea of a unified model for quasars and micro-quasars has been considered for a long time, despite the different environments and physical conditions where both classes of objects reside. Here we show the existence of a simple scaling…
Liquid jets issued from a non-circular orifice exhibit oscillation owing to the surface tension. When the orifice has an $n$-fold rotational symmetry, a material cross section of the jet interchanges two symmetric shapes alternately. This…
Breakup of a liquid jet in a high speed gaseous crossflow finds wide range of engineering and technological applications, especially in the combustors of the gas turbine engines in aerospace industry. In this study, we present…
Experiments and numerical simulations were conducted to investigate the dispersion of turbulent jets issuing from realistic pipe geometries. The effect of jet densities and Reynolds numbers on vertical buoyant jets were investigated, as…
We analyze the tunneling of vortex states from elliptically shaped traps. Using the hydrodynamic representation of the Gross-Pitaevskii (Nonlinear Schr\"odinger) equation, we derive analytically and demonstrate numerically a novel type of…
We report on singular jets in a free-falling liquid tin droplet following nanosecond laser-pulse impact. Following impact, the droplet (with diameter $D_0=50$ or 70\,$\mu$m) undergoes rapid radial expansion and subsequent retraction,…
We investigated the formation of granular focused jets defined as narrow upward ejections of grains triggered by impulsive forces and shaped by kinematic focusing on a concave free surface. The jets were generated from nonfluidized granular…
Axisymmetric waves occur across a wide range of scales. This study analyses large-scale gravity-dominated axisymmetric waves, with jet heights of up to 6 m, for which surface-tension effects are negligible. The Bond number is O(10^5) and…
The amount of air entrained by vertical water jets impacting a large pool is revisited. To test available phenomenological models, new data on the jet deformation at impact and on the entrained air flow rate were collected both on a…

A spontaneous breakup of a liquid jet results in the formation of a chain of droplets, which is a daily observed phenomenon, such as in the raining process and under an open water-faucet. We here report inkjet printing experiments for the…
