Polarization of superfluid turbulence
arXiv:cond-mat/0208135 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.89.275301
Abstract
We show that normal fluid eddies in turbulent helium II polarize the tangle of quantized vortex lines present in the flow, thus inducing superfluid vorticity patterns similar to the driving normal fluid eddies. We also show that the polarization is effective over the entire inertial range. The results help explain the surprising analogies between classical and superfluid turbulence which have been observed recently.
