We derive asymptotic estimates for the projection of the vorticity onto principal directions of material stretching in 3D flows. In flows with pointwise bounded vorticity, these estimates predict vorticity alignment with Lyapunov vectors…
Magnetic reconnection, topological change in magnetic fields, is a fundamental process in magnetized plasmas. It is associated with energy release in regions of magnetic field annihilation, but this is only one facet of this process.…
The static and dynamic properties of vortices in dipolar Bose-Einstein condensates (dBECs) can be considerably modified relative to their nondipolar counterparts by the anisotropic and long-ranged nature of the dipole-dipole interaction.…
An experimental study is reported which investigates the head-on collision of a laminar vortex ring of diameter D (Re{\Gamma}= 3000) on a fakir-like surface composed of circular posts of height h*=0.068 located on a planar bed. Lattices of…
Magnetic reconnection with asymmetry in the outflow direction occurs in the Earth's magnetotail, coronal mass ejections, flux cancellation events, astrophysical disks, spheromak merging experiments, and elsewhere in nature and the…
Nonlinear evolution of magnetic reconnection is investigated by means of magnetohydrodynamic simulations including uniform resistivity, uniform viscosity, and anisotropic thermal conduction. When viscosity exceeds resistivity (the magnetic…
Zero-helicity vortices, such as Hill's vortex and field-reversed configurations (FRCs), have long been assumed to be toroidal in topology. This paper proves this assumption false: under arbitrarily small odd-parity (with respect to the…
The vortex dynamics of laminar flow past a rectangular cavity is investigated using simulations and experiments. The flow is three-dimensional and characterized by a large, dominant vortex structure that fills most of the cavity at moderate…
As is well-known, two-dimensional and three-dimensional superfluids under rotation can support topological excitations such as quantized point vortices and line vortices respectively. Recently, we have studied how, in a hypothetical…
Advancements in the fabrication of superconducting 3D nanostructures and the creation of artificial pinning sites pave the way to novel applications and enhancement of nanosensors, bolometers, and quantum interferometers. The dynamics of…
An alternative approach to the derivation of the force on a vortex based in an adiabatic approximation in the action of the superfluid system is developed. Assuming that the vortex motion is relatively slow compared with the characteristic…
We investigate the behaviour of the mutual friction force in finite temperature quantum turbulence in $^4$He, paying particular attention to the role of quantized vortex reconnections. Through the use of the vortex filament model, we…
The origin of a vortex structure generated during the shock-plasma interaction is investigated. A two-dimensional model based on the shock refraction mechanism successfully unifies the vortex generation with major co-processes typical for…
A conformal pinning array can be created by conformally transforming a uniform triangular pinning lattice to produces a new structure in which the six-fold ordering of the original lattice is conserved but where there is a spatial gradient…
Magnetic reconnection and plasma turbulence are ubiquitous processes important for laboratory, space and astrophysical plasmas. Reconnection has been suggested to play an important role in the energetics and dynamics of turbulence by…
We develop an analytical theory of reconnection between colliding, twisted magnetic flux tubes. Our analysis is restricted to direct collisions between parallel tubes and is based on the collision dynamics worked out by Bogdan (1984). We…
We present a numerical method for generating vortex rings in Bose-Einstein condensates confined in axially symmetric traps. The vortex ring is generated using the line-source approximation for the vorticity, i.e., the rotational of the…
We study the evolution of rotational response of a hydrodynamic model of a two-component superfluid with a non-dissipative drag interaction, as the system undergoes a transition into a paired phase at finite temperature. The transition…
Vortex is a central concept in the understanding of turbulent dynamics. Objective algorithms for the detection and extraction of vortex structures can facilitate the physical understanding of turbulence regeneration dynamics by enabling…
Two-leg bosonic ladders with flux harbor a remarkable vortex-hole duality between the weak-coupling vortex lattice superfluids and strong-coupling charge-density-wave crystals. The strong-coupling crystalline states, which are realized in…
