In this work we consider vortex lattices in rotating Bose-Einstein Condensates composed of two species of bosons having different masses. Previously [1] it was claimed that the vortices of the two species form bound pairs and the two vortex…

We demonstrate that a single reconnection of two quantum vortices can lead to creation of a cascade of vortex rings. Our analysis, motivated by the analytical solution in LIA, involves high-resolution Biot-Savart and Gross-Pitaevskii…

We demonstrate the existence of the helical vortex solution in two-component Bose-Einstein condensates which can be identified as a twisted vorticity flux. Based on this we argue that the recently proposed knot in two-component…

Vortex reconnections play a fundamental role in fluids.They increase the complexity of flow and develop small-scale motions.In this work, we report that in superfluids, they can also excite large scales. We numerically illustrate that…

In homogeneous and isotropic turbulence, the relative contributions of different physical mechanisms to the energy cascade can be quantified by an exact decomposition of the energy flux (P. Johnson, Phys. Rev. Lett., 124, 104501 (2020), J.…

Three-dimensional (3D) turbulence has both energy and helicity as inviscid constants of motion. In contrast to two-dimensional (2D) turbulence, where a second inviscid invariant--the enstrophy--blocks the energy cascade to small scales, in…
