Knots are not just for shoelaces and sailing lines. In the last decade, physicists have shown that swirling liquids can ...

So long, solitons: University of Chicago physicists have shown that a group of scientists were incorrect when they concluded that a mysterious effect found in superfluids indicated the presence of ...

A team of researchers affiliated with UNIST has made a significant breakthrough by mathematically proving that a special type of vortex pair, called the Sadovskii vortex patch, can exist within ideal ...

Vortex dynamics and the Navier–Stokes equations constitute a cornerstone of fluid dynamics, offering profound insights into the behaviour of complex flows. Vortices, with their swirling motions and ...

The knots in your shoelaces are familiar, but can you imagine knots made from light, water, or from the structured fluids that make LCD screens shine? They exist, and in a new Nature Physics study, ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract We prove rigorously the asymptotic motion equation of a vortex line in a superconductor and a superfluid at small coherence length ε . In ...

Researchers have shown that a group of scientists were incorrect when they concluded that a mysterious effect found in superfluids indicated the presence of solitons -- exotic, solitary waves. Instead ...
