A conservative low-order model for Boussinesq baroclinic fronts
Nadav Yovel, Eyal Heifetz
The internal dynamics of baroclinic fronts are governed by a fundamental interplay: turbulent eddies systematically act to disrupt thermal wind balance, with baroclinic eddies flat…
Observation of Large-Scale Kelvin-Helmholtz Instability Wave Driven by a Coronal Mass Ejection
Leon Ofman, Olga Khabarova, Ryun-Yong Kwon +3
The Kelvin-Helmholtz instability (KHI) can occur when there is a relative motion between two adjacent fluids. In the case of magnetized plasma, the shear velocity must exceed the l…
Landau levels in a time-dependent magnetic field: the Madelung fluid perspective
Nicolas Perez, Eyal Heifetz
We revisit the quantum dynamics of a charged particle in a time-dependent magnetic field, a fundamental problem exhibiting rich non-adiabatic behaviour, from the complementary pers…
Edge-wave phase-shifts versus normal-mode phase-tilts in an Eady problem with a sloping boundary
Julian Mak, Nili Harnik, Eyal Heifetz +2
One mechanistic interpretation of baroclinic instability is that of mutual constructive interference of Rossby edge-waves. While the two edge-waves and their relative phase-shifts…
Relating interfacial Rossby wave interaction in shear flows with Feynman's two-state coupled quantum system model for the Josephson junction
Eyal Heifetz, Nimrod Bratspiess, Anirban Guha +1
Here we show how Feynman's simplified model for the Josephson junction, as a macroscopic two-state coupled quantum system, has a one-to-one correspondence with the stable dynamics…
A Swarm Coherence Mechanism for Jellyfish
Erik Gengel, Zafrir Kuplik, Dror Angel +1
We present a theory of jellyfish swarm formation and exemplify it with simulations of active Brownian particles. The motivation for our analysis is the phenomenon of jellyfish bloo…
