Using $10,\!080^3$ grid simulations, we analyze scale-dependent alignment in driven, compressible, no net-flux magnetohydrodynamic turbulence. The plasma self-organizes into localized, strongly aligned regions. Alignment spans all primitive…

The transverse and trace-free (TT) part of the extrinsic curvature represents half of the dynamical degrees of freedom of the gravitational field in the $3 + 1$ formalism. As such, it is part of the freely specifiable initial data for…

We show that solutions $u(x,t)$ of the non-stationnary incompressible Navier--Stokes system in $\R^d$ ($d\geq2$) starting from mild decaying data $a$ behave as $|x|\to\infty$ as a potential field: u(x,t) = e^{t\Delta}a(x) +…

In this work, we study numerically the temporal evolution of an initially random large-scale velocity field under governed by the hyperviscous incompressible Navier-Stoke equations. Three stages are clearly observed during the evolution.…

In this work we investigate the phenomenon of pathwise non-uniqueness for the stochastic incompressible Euler equations with a passive tracer on the whole Euclidean space. The stochastic perturbations are interpreted as a transport noise…

Anomalous correlation functions of the temperature field in two-dimensional turbulent convection are shown to be universal with respect to the choice of external sources. Moreover, they are equal to the anomalous correlations of the…

Intermittency phenomena are known to be among the main reasons why Kolmogorov's theory of fully developed Turbulence is not in accordance with several experimental results. This is why some \emph{fractal} statistical models have been…

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…
