Experiments (Mullin and Kreswell, 2005) show that transition to turbulence can start at Reynolds numbers lower than it is predicted by the linear stability analysis - the subcritical transition to turbulence. To explain these observations…
The critical velocity v_c for the onset of quantum turbulence in oscillatory flows of superfluid helium is universal and scales as v_c \sim \sqrt{\kappa\omega}, where \kappa is the circulation quantum and \omega is the oscillation…
The ubiquity of turbulent flows in nature and technology makes it of utmost importance to fundamentally understand turbulence. Kolmogorov's 1941 paradigm suggests that for strongly turbulent flows with many degrees of freedom and its large…
The understanding of turbulent flows is one of the biggest current challenges in physics, as no first-principles theory exists to explain their observed spatio-temporal intermittency. Turbulent flows may be regarded as an intricate…
Two different types of transitions of the superfluid $^4$He to quantum turbulence regimes are studied for $1{\rm D}$ geometry in the case when the influence of the normal fluid on superfluid flow is suppressed. It is shown that the roton…
Superfluid Turbulence is unusual and presents a challenge to fluid dynamicists because it consists of two coupled, inter penetrating turbulent fluids: the first is inviscid with quantised vorticity, the second is viscous with continuous…
We collect and describe the observed geometrical and dynamical properties of turbulence in quantum fluids, particularly superfluid helium and atomic condensates for which more information about turbulence is available. Considering the…
Contrasting with free shear flows presenting velocity profiles with inflection points which cascade to turbulence in a relatively mild way, wall bounded flows are deprived of (inertial) instability modes at low Reynolds numbers and become…
Superfluid turbulence consisting of quantized vortices is called quantum turbulence (QT). Quantum turbulence and quantized vortices were discovered in superfluid $^4$He about 50 years ago, but innovation has occurred recently in this field.…
The term quantum turbulence denotes the turbulent motion of quantum fluids, systems such as superfluid helium and atomic Bose-Einstein condensates which are characterized by quantized vorticity, uperfluidity and, at finite temperatures,…
We numerically investigate the nonlinear dynamics of a two-dimensional exciton-polariton quantum fluid coherently driven by two counter-propagating laser beams. Using an exciton-photon coupled driven-dissipative Gross-Pitaevskii framework,…
Finite-temperature quantum turbulence is often described in terms of two immiscible fluids that can flow with a non-zero mean relative velocity. Such out-of-equilibrium state is known as counterflow superfluid turbulence. We report here the…
Turbulence in fluids is an ubiquitous phenomenon, characterized by spontaneous transition of a smooth, laminar flow to rapidly changing, chaotic dynamics. In 1883, Reynolds experimentally demonstrated that, in an initially laminar flow of…
We consider superfluid turbulence near absolute zero of temperature generated by classical means, e.g. towed grid or rotation but not by counterflow. We argue that such turbulence consists of a {\em polarized} tangle of mutually interacting…
{\bf Direct} transition from low Reynolds number "weak" Gaussian turbulence to fully developed "strong" turbulence at a critical Reynolds number $R^{tr}_{\lambda}\approx 8.91$ has recently been theoretically predicted and tested in high…

We investigate anomalously slow coarsening in a dilute two-dimensional (2d) superfluid closed with respect to particle and energy exchange with the environment. The dynamics is demonstrated to be closely connected to both, a non-thermal…
Vortices are pervasive in nature, representing the breakdown of laminar fluid flow and hence playing a key role in turbulence. The fluid rotation associated with a vortex can be parameterized by the circulation $\Gamma=\oint {\rm d}{\bf…
A landmark of out-of-equilibrium physics is Kolmogorov's phenomenological theory of turbulence. However, the past 20 years have provided evidence of a new, universal type of turbulence cascade, which does not abide to Kolmogorov physics. To…
In this article, we review the research on the dynamics of quantized vortices in superfluid helium and rotating Bose-Einstein condensates. First, after briefly reviewing the earlier research and describing the current problems on quantized…
