Revisiting the Landau criterion: a hydrodynamic and holographic approach to superfluid instabilities
Filippo Sottovia
In this thesis we investigate the instabilities of superfluids at finite superflow by means of a hydrodynamical approach. We find that at a finite value of the background superflui…

Hydrodynamics and instabilities of relativistic superfluids at finite superflow
Daniel Areán, Blaise Goutéraux, Eric Mefford +1
We study the linear response of relativistic superfluids with a non-zero superfluid velocity. For sufficiently large superflow, an instability develops via the crossing of a pole o…

Thermodynamic origin of the Landau instability of superfluids
Blaise Goutéraux, Eric Mefford, Filippo Sottovia
In this work, we revisit the question of the linear stability of superfluid phases of matter. Famously, Landau predicted superfluid Helium would become unstable for large enough su…
