abstract

In superfluid helium, vorticity is quantized and constrained on line-like phase singularities, called quantum or quantized vortices. By visualizing the motion of sub-micron frozen particles in superfluid $^{4}$He, we directly observe for the first time the helical Kelvin waves excited after quantized vortex reconnections. We compare the data with self-similar solutions of vortex filament models. We report the results in a fluid dynamic video.

  1. On Dust Devil Diameters, Occurrence Rates, and Activity

    astro-ph.EP 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Dust devil diameters follow a D^-5/3 power-law because the vortices are close-packed in their inflow regions, and their areal density scales with thermodynamic efficiency times sensible heat flux.
