To explain the observed decay of superfluid turbulence at very low temperature, it has been proposed that a cascade of Kelvin waves (analogous to the classical Kolmogorov cascade) transfers kinetic energy to length scales which are small…
Propagation of gravitational and acoustic plane waves in a flat universe filled with a general relativistic, homogeneous and isotropic, spatially flat continuum is studied. The continuum is described by analogues of nonrelativistic…
In high energy nuclear collisions, QCD jets deposit a large fraction of their energy into the produced matter. It has been proposed that as such matter behaves as a liquid with a very small viscosity, a fraction of this energy goes into a…

Analytical expressions are derived for the time-averaged, quasi-steady, acoustic radiation force on a heated, spherical, elastic, solid microparticle suspended in a fluid and located in an axisymmetric incident acoustic wave. The heating is…
A new instability mechanism is described in accretion flows where the gas is accelerated from a stationary shock to a sonic surface. The instability is based on a cycle of acoustic and entropic waves in this subsonic region of the flow.…
Astrophysical explosions are accompanied by the propagation of a shock wave through an ambient medium. Depending on the mass and energy involved in the explosion, the shock velocity $V$ can be non-relativistic ($V \ll c$, where $c$ is the…

The superfluid phase transition of bosons in a two-dimensional (2D) system with disorder and an external parabolic potential is studied. The theory is applied to experiments on indirect excitons in coupled quantum wells. The random field is…
In most classical fluids, shock waves are strongly dissipative, their energy being quickly lost through viscous damping. But in systems such as cold plasmas, superfluids, and Bose-Einstein condensates, where viscosity is negligible or…
Self-similar solutions to the problem of a strong imploding relativistic shock wave are calculated. These solutions represent the relativistic generalisation of the Newtonian Gouderley-Landau-Stanyukovich problem of a strong imploding…
Assuming that nuclear matter can be treated as a perfect fluid, we study the propagation of perturbations in the baryon density. The equation of state is derived from a relativistic mean field model, which is a variant of the non-linear…
In this work we study wave propagation in dissipative relativistic fluids described by a simplified set of the 2nd order viscous conformal hydrodynamic equations. Small amplitude waves are studied within the linearization approximation…
Based on the many-boson system structure factor, which takes into account three- and four-particle direct correlations, there was found the first sound velocity temperature behaviour in liquid $^4$He in the post-RPA approximation. The…
We consider the corrugation instability of the self-similar flow with an accelerating shock in the highly relativistic regime. We derive the correct dispersion relation for the proper modes in the self-similar regime, and conclude that this…
The elementary processes involved in the decay of superfluid turbulence in the limit of low temperature are studied by numerical simulations of vortex ring collisions. We find that small vortex rings produced by reconnections eventually…
