Observation of the Aharonov-Bohm Effect in Pilot-Wave Hydrodynamics
Georgi Gary Rozenman, Kyle I. McKee, Arnaud Lazarus +2
We report the results of an experimental study of an analog of the Aharonov-Bohm (AB) effect achieved with the hydrodynamic pilot-wave system. A walking droplet is confined to an a…

Resonance of an object floating within a surface wavefield
Sébastien Kuchly, Wilson Reino, Kyle McKee +3
We examine the interaction between floating cylindrical objects and surface waves in the gravity regime. Since the impact of resonance phenomena associated with floating bodies, pa…

Potential Flows with Electromagnetically-Induced Circulation in a Hele-Shaw Cell
Kyle I. McKee, John W. M. Bush
In Hele-Shaw cells, pressure-driven viscous fluid motion between two closely-spaced plates gives rise to a two-dimensional potential flow with zero circulation. Here, we show how t…
