Intermittency and non-universality of pair dispersion in isothermal compressible turbulence
Sadhitro De, Dhrubaditya Mitra, Rahul Pandit
Statistical properties of the pair dispersion of Lagrangian particles (tracers) in incompressible turbulent flows provide insights into transport and mixing. We explore the same in…
