Helical and nonhelical (magneto-)Burgers turbulence: I. Compressibility reduction and beyond

Jian-Zhou Zhu, Pei-Xin Shi

We compare the helical and nonhelical (magneto-)Burgers turbulence for the \textit{helicity fastening effect}. Theoretical arguments and heuristic mathematical analysis are offered…

Compressible helical turbulence: Fastened-structure geometry and statistics

Jian-Zhou Zhu

Reduction of flow compressibility with the corresponding ideally invariant helicities, universally for various fluid models of neutral and ionized gases, can be argued statisticall…

Turbulence compressibility reduction with helicity

Yan Yang, Jian-Zhou Zhu

Numerical test of isotropic turbulence compressibility reduction with helicity in a cyclic box is performed. The ratios of compressibility-relevant-mode spectra over those of kinet…

Vorticity and helicity decompositions and dynamics with real Schur form of the velocity gradient

Jian-Zhou Zhu

The real Schur form (RSF) of a generic velocity gradient field is exploited to expose the structures of flows, in particular our field decomposition resulting i…

Local invariants in non-ideal flows of neutral fluids and two-fluid plasmas

Jian-Zhou Zhu

Local structures, beyond the well-known `frozen-in' to the barotropic flows of the generalized vorticities, of the two-fluid model of plasma flows are presented. More general non-b…

Chirality, extended MHD statistics and solar wind turbulence

Jian-Zhou Zhu

We unite the one-flow-dominated-state (OFDS) argument of \citet{MeyrandGaltierPRL12} with the one-chiral-sector-dominated-state (OCSCS) one \citep[][]{hydrochirality} to form a non…

On topological fluid mechanics of non-ideal systems and virtual frozen-in dynamics

Jian-Zhou Zhu

Euler and Navier-Stokes have variant systems with dynamical invariance of helicity and thus (weak) topological equivalence, allowing a strong `frozen-in' (to, or, dually, `Lie-carr…

Isotropic polarization of compressible flows

Jian-Zhou Zhu

The helical absolute equilibrium of a compressible adiabatic flow presents not only the polarization between the two purely helical modes of opposite chiralities but also that betw…

Note on specific chiral ensembles of statistical hydrodynamics: "order function" for transition of turbulence transfer scenarios

Jian-Zhou Zhu

Hydrodynamic helicity signatures the parity symmetry breaking, chirality, of the flow. Statistical hydrodynamics thus respect chirality, as symmetry breaking and restoration are ke…

Purely helical absolute equilibria and chirality of (magneto)fluid turbulence

Jian-Zhou Zhu, Weihong Yang, Guang-Yu Zhu

Left- and right-handed helical modes' statistical absolute equilibria appear \textit{separately}. If both chiral sectors present, one can dominate around its positive pole, which i…

Fourier-Hankel/Bessel space absolute equilibria of 2D gyrokinetics

Comment on "Energy Transfer and Dual Cascade in Kinetic Magnetized Plasma Turbulence"

Jian-Zhou Zhu

We argue that the constraints on transfers, given in the Letter [G. Plunk and T. Tatsuno, Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 106}, 165003 (2011)], but not correctly, do not give the transfer an…
