A two-dimensional fluid, stirred at high wavenumbers and damped by both viscosity and linear friction, is modeled by a statistical field theory. The fluid's long-distance behavior is studied using renormalization-group (RG) methods, as…

We present results of numerical simulation of the direct cascade in two-dimensional hydrodynamic turbulence (with spatial resolution up to $16384 \times 16384$). If at the earlier stage (at the time of order of the inverse pumping growth…

Two-dimensional turbulence in a rectangular domain self-organises into large-scale unidirectional jets. While several results are present to characterize the mean jets velocity profile, much less is known about the fluctuations. We study…
