A Continuum Theory of Superfluid Turbulence based on Extended Thermodynamics

2009

A thermodynamical model of inhomogeneous superfluid turbulence previously formulated is extended in this paper to nonlinear regimes. The theory chooses as fundamental fields the density, the velocity, the energy density, and two extra variables, in order to include the specific properties of the fluid in consideration: the averaged vortex line length per unit volume and a renormalized expression of the heat flux. The relations which constrain the constitutive quantities are deduced from the second principle of thermodynamics using the Liu method of Lagrange multipliers. Using a Legendre transformation, it is shown that the constitutive theory is determined by the choice of only two scalar f…

Waves on a vortex filament: exact solutions of dynamical equations

2014

In this paper we take into account the dynamical equations of a vortex filament in superfluid helium at finite temperature (1 K < T < 2.17 K) and at very low temperature, which is called Biot-Savart law. The last equation is also valid for a vortex tube in a frictionless, unbounded and incompressible fluid. Both the equations are approximated by the Local Induction Approximation (LIA) and Fukumoto's approximation. The obtained equations are then considered in the extrinsic frame of reference, where exact solutions (Kelvin waves) are shown. These waves are then compared one to each other in terms of their dispersion relations in the frictionless case. The same equations are then investigated…

Non-classical Velocity Statistics in Counterflow Quantum Turbulence

2014

In this work we analyse the statistical distribution of turbulent superfluid velocity components in a He II counterflow channel, via two-dimensional numerical simulations pre- sented in past studies. The Probability Density Functions (PDFs) of the superfluid velocity components are investigated at lengthscales smaller than the average intervortex spacing, for varying vortex densities and different wall-normal distances. The results obtained con- firm the non-classical signature of quantum turbulence already observed in past numerical studies.

Dynamics of mean-field spin models from basic results in abstract differential equations

1992

The infinite-volume limit of the dynamics of (generalized) mean-field spin models is obtained through a direct analysis of the equations of motion, in a large class of representations of the spin algebra. The resulting dynamics fits into a general framework for systems with long-range interaction: variables at infinity appear in the time evolution of local variables and spontaneous symmetry breaking with an energy gap follows from this mechanism. The independence of the construction of the approximation scheme in finite volume is proven. © 1992 Plenum Publishing Corporation.

A duality-invariant Einstein-Planck relation and its consequences on micro-black holes.

2013

We discuss the consequences of a duality-invariant Einstein–Planck (DIEP) relation on the equation of state of micro black holes. The results are analogous to those obtained from the "world-crystal" model, but with some significative differences, as for instance a limiting vanishing value for temperature for very small black holes. The model leads to a total evaporation of micro black holes but with the final stage being very slow.

Non-equilibrium temperature of well-developed quantum turbulence

2009

Abstract A non-equilibrium effective temperature of quantum vortex tangles is defined as the average energy of closed vortex loops. The resulting thermodynamic expressions for the entropy and the energy in terms of the temperature of the tangle are confirmed by a microscopic analysis based on a potential distribution function for the length of vortex loops. Furthermore, these expressions for the entropy and energy in terms of temperature are analogous to those of black holes: this may be of interest for establishing further connections between topological defects in superfluids and cosmology.

Fractal dimension of superfluid turbulence : A random-walk toy model

2021

This paper deals with the fractal dimension of a superfluid vortex tangle. It extends a previous model [J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. {\bf 43}, 205501 (2010)] (which was proposed for very low temperature), and it proposes an alternative random walk toy model, which is valid also for finite temperature. This random walk model combines a recent Nemirovskii's proposal, and a simple modelization of a self-similar structure of vortex loops (mimicking the geometry of the loops of several sizes which compose the tangle). The fractal dimension of the vortex tangle is then related to the exponents describing how the vortex energy per unit length changes with the length scales, for which we take recent pr…

Complex singularity analysis for vortex layer flows

2021

We study the evolution of a 2D vortex layer at high Reynolds number. Vortex layer flows are characterized by intense vorticity concentrated around a curve. In addition to their intrinsic interest, vortex layers are relevant configurations because they are regularizations of vortex sheets. In this paper, we consider vortex layers whose thickness is proportional to the square-root of the viscosity. We investigate the typical roll-up process, showing that crucial phases in the initial flow evolution are the formation of stagnation points and recirculation regions. Stretching and folding characterizes the following stage of the dynamics, and we relate these events to the growth of the palinstro…

Stock markets and quantum dynamics: A second quantized description

2009

In this paper we continue our description of stock markets in terms of some non-abelian operators which are used to describe the portfolio of the various traders and other observable quantities. After a first prototype model with only two traders, we discuss a more realistic model of market involving an arbitrary number of traders. For both models we find approximated solutions for the time evolution of the portfolio of each trader. In particular, for the more realistic model, we use the stochastic limit approach and a fixed point like approximation. © 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved
