We show that density-weighted moments of the dissipation rate, $\epsilon_l$, averaged over a scale $l$, in supersonic turbulence can be successfully explained by the She and L\'ev\^eque model [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 72}, 336 (1994)]. A…
Context. Turbulence is a key component of molecular cloud structure. It is usually described by a cascade of energy down to the dissipation scale. The power spectrum for subsonic incompressible turbulence is $k^{-5/3}$, while for supersonic…
In the theory of protoplanetary disk turbulence, a widely adopted \emph{ansatz}, or assumption, is that the turnover frequency of the largest turbulent eddy, $\Omega_L$, is the local Keplerian frequency $\Omega_K$. In terms of the standard…
Normal behavior of the thermodynamic properties of a Fermi gas in $d>2$ dimensions, integer or not, means monotonically increasing or decreasing of its specific heat, chemical potential or isothermal sound velocity, all as functions of…
Many recent works on the observed galaxy clusters in the X-rays highlight broadly two classes of exclusive energy carriers - sound waves and turbulence. In order to understand this dichotomy, we design an idealized three-dimensional…
We accomplish two major tasks. First, we show that the turbulent motion at large scales obeys Gaussian statistics in the interval 0 < Rlambda < 8.8, where Rlambda is the microscale Reynolds number, and that the Gaussian flow breaks down to…
We investigate the GOY shell model within the scenario of a critical dimension in fully developed turbulence. By changing the conserved quantities, one can continuously vary an ``effective dimension'' between $d=2$ and $d=3$. We identify a…
We study formation of quasi two-dimensional (thin pancakes) vortex structures in three-dimensional flows, and quasi one-dimensional structures in two-dimensional hydrodynamics. These structures are formed at high Reynolds numbers, when…
Data available in literature from direct numerical simulations of two-dimensional turbulent channels by Lee & Moser (2015), Bernardini et al. (2014), Yamamoto and Tsuji (2018) and Orlandi et al. (2015) in a large range of Reynolds number…
In fully developed three dimensional fluid turbulence the fluctuating energy is supplied at large scales, cascades through intermediate scales, and dissipates at small scales. It is the hallmark of turbulence that for intermediate scales,…
We performed high resolution numerical simulations of homogenous and isotropic compressible turbulence, with an average 3D Mach number close to 0.3. We study the statistical properties of intermittency for velocity, density and entropy. For…
The shock wave structure in a one-dimensional lattice (e.g. granular chain) with a power law dependence of force on displacement between particles with viscous dissipation is considered and compared to the corresponding long wave…
We conduct experiments in a turbulent bubbly flow to study the nature of the transition between the classical $-$5/3 energy spectrum scaling for a single-phase turbulent flow and the $-$3 scaling for a swarm of bubbles rising in a quiescent…
We consider generalizations of the entropic accelerating universe recently proposed in Ref. [4,5] and show that their background equations can be made equivalent to a model with a dark energy component with constant parameter of state…
We find that a competition between dispersion forces among molecules in solids and their phonon mediated coupling leads to a natural length scale based on molecular parameters and relevant to decipher glass anomalies. For amorphous systems,…
Turbulent fluxes in the atmospheric surface layer are key input for the prediction of weather, hydrology, and carbon dioxide concentration. In numerical modelling of turbulent fluxes, a -7/3 power-law scaling in turbulence cospectra is…
We consider a one dimensional infinite acoustic chain of harmonic oscillators whose dynamics is perturbed by a random exchange of velocities, such that the energy and momentum of the chain are conserved. Consequently, the evolution of the…
We study the formation and dynamics of shock waves initiated by a repulsive potential in a superfluid unitary Fermi gas by using the order-parameter equation. In the theoretical framework, the regularization process of shock waves mediated…
We consider an ideal Bose gas enclosed in a $d$-dimensional slab of thickness $D$. Using the grand canonical ensemble we calculate the variance of the thermal Casimir force acting on the slab's walls. The variance evaluated per unit wall…
Supersonic turbulence plays an important role in a number of extreme astrophysical and terrestrial environments, yet its understanding remains rudimentary. We use data from a three-dimensional simulation of supersonic isothermal turbulence…
