At the short times, the enstrophy $\Omega$ of a two-dimensional flow, generated by a random Gaussian initial condition decays as $\Omega(t)\propto t^{-\gamma}$ with $\gamma\approx 0.7$. After that, the flow undergoes transition to a…

When two resonantly interacting modes are in contact with a thermostat, their statistics is exactly Gaussian and the modes are statistically independent despite strong interaction. Considering noise-driven system, we show that when one mode…

In non-equilibrium states, currents are produced by irreversible processes that take a system toward the equilibrium state, where the current vanishes. We demonstrate, in a general setting, that a superstatistics arises when the system…
