Evidence that rotons in helium II are interstitial atoms

Robert M Brady, Edward T Samulski, David H P Turban

Superfluid helium II contains excitations known as rotons. Their properties have been studied experimentally for more than 70 years but their structure is not fully understood. Fey…

Maxwell's fluid model of magnetism

Robert Brady, Ross Anderson

In 1861, Maxwell derived two of his equations of electromagnetism by modelling a magnetic line of force as a `molecular vortex' in a fluid-like medium. Later, in 1980, Berry and co…

Why bouncing droplets are a pretty good model of quantum mechanics

Robert Brady, Ross Anderson

In 2005, Couder, Protiere, Fort and Badouad showed that oil droplets bouncing on a vibrating tray of oil can display nonlocal interactions reminiscent of the particle-wave associat…

Violation of Bell's inequality in fluid mechanics

Robert Brady, Ross Anderson

We show that a classical fluid mechanical system can violate Bell's inequality because the fluid motion is correlated over large distances.

The irrotational motion of a compressible inviscid fluid

Robert Brady

The irrotational motion of a compressible inviscid fluid is studied in the field of analogue gravity, where its metric is compared to that in general relativity, a fluid analogue o…

Why quantum computing is hard - and quantum cryptography is not provably secure

Ross Anderson, Robert Brady

Despite high hopes for quantum computation in the 1990s, progress in the past decade has been slow; we still cannot perform computation with more than about three qubits and are no…
