Compressible turbulence governs energy transfer across scales in space and astrophysical systems. Capturing both the turbulence cascade and damping is therefore crucial for models of energy conversion, plasma heating, and particle transport…

Turbulent cascades characterize the transfer of energy injected by a random force at large scales towards the small scales. In hydrodynamic turbulence, when the Reynolds number is large, the velocity field of the fluid becomes irregular and…

Turbulence is characterized by the non-linear cascades of energy and other inviscid invariants across a huge range of scales, from where they are injected to where they are dissipated. Recently, new experimental, numerical and theoretical…

We study the dynamics of inertial particles in turbulence using datasets obtained from both direct numerical simulations and laboratory experiments of turbulent swirling flows. By analyzing time series of particle velocity increments at…

We present a phenomenological model of imbalanced MHD turbulence in an incompressible magnetofluid. The steady-state cascades, of waves traveling in opposite directions along the mean magnetic field, carry unequal energy fluxes to small…

Elastic turbulence is the chaotic fluid motion resulting from elastic instabilities due to the addition of polymers in small concentrations at very small Reynolds ($\mbox{Re}$) numbers. Our direct numerical simulations show that elastic…

We develop an analytic model of intermittent, three-dimensional, strong, reduced magnetohydrodynamic turbulence with zero cross helicity. We take the fluctuation amplitudes to have a log-Poisson distribution and incorporate into the model a…

We performed numerical simulations of supersonic isothermal turbulence driven by mostly compressive large-scale forcing, using both a static grid and adaptive mesh refinement with an effective resolution N=768^3. After a transient phase…

We simulate stellar convection at high Reynolds number (Re$\lesssim$7000) with causal time stepping but no explicit viscosity. We use the 3D Euler equations with shock capturing (Colella & Woodward 1984). Anomalous dissipation of turbulent…

The statistical properties of interstellar turbulence are studied by means of three-dimensional high-resolution HD and MHD simulations of a SN-driven ISM. It is found that the longitudinal and transverse turbulent length scales have time…

We extend the Kolmogorov phenomenology for the scaling of energy spectra in high-Reynolds number turbulence, to explicitly include the effect of helicity. There exists a time-scale $\tau_H$ for helicity transfer in homogeneous, isotropic…
