Zero-helicity vortices, such as Hill's vortex and field-reversed configurations (FRCs), have long been assumed to be toroidal in topology. This paper proves this assumption false: under arbitrarily small odd-parity (with respect to the…

We carry out Monte Carlo simulations of the uniformly frustrated 3d XY model as a model for vortex line fluctuations in a high Tc superconductor. A density of vortex lines of f=1/25 is considered. We find two sharp phase transitions. The…
With increasing applied current we show that the moving vortex lattice changes its structure from a triangular one to a set of parallel vortex rows in a pinning free superconductor. This effect originates from the change of the shape of the…
Vortex rings have the ability to transport fluid over long distances. They are usually produced by ejecting a volume of fluid through a circular orifice or nozzle. When the volume and velocity of the ejected fluid are known, the vortex'…
