When two vortices cross, each of them breaks into two parts and exchanges part of itself for part of the other. This process, called vortex reconnection, occurs in classical as well as superfluids, and in magnetized plasmas and…
The flow of superfluid helium at very low temperatures around an oscillating microsphere is known to be unstable slightly above the critical velocity. The flow pattern switches intermittently between potential flow and turbulence. From time…
