Helioseismology in a bottle: modal acoustic velocimetry
Santiago Andrés Triana, Daniel S. Zimmerman, Henri-Claude Nataf +3
Measurement of the differential rotation of the Sun's interior is one of the great achievements of helioseismology, providing important constraints for stellar physics. The techniq…
Azimuthal velocity profiles in Rayleigh-stable Taylor-Couette flow and implied axial angular momentum transport
Freja Nordsiek, Sander G. Huisman, Roeland C. A. van der Veen +3
We present azimuthal velocity profiles measured in a Taylor-Couette apparatus, which has been used as a model of stellar and planetary accretion disks. The apparatus has a cylinder…
Visualization of Kelvin waves on quantum vortices
Enrico Fonda, David P. Meichle, Nicholas T. Ouellette +3
In superfluid helium, vorticity is quantized and constrained on line-like phase singularities, called quantum or quantized vortices. By visualizing the motion of sub-micron frozen…
On the excitation of inertial modes in an experimental spherical Couette flow
Michel Rieutord, Santiago Andres Triana, Daniel S. Zimmerman +1
Spherical Couette flow (flow between concentric rotating spheres) is one of flows under consideration for the laboratory magnetic dynamos. Recent experiments have shown that such f…
Angular momentum transport and turbulence in laboratory models of Keplerian flows
M. S. Paoletti, Dennis P. M. van Gils, B. Dubrulle +3
We present angular momentum transport (torque) measurements in two recent experimental studies of the turbulent flow between independently rotating cylinders. In addition to these…
Bi-stability in turbulent, rotating spherical Couette flow
Daniel S. Zimmerman, Santiago Andrés Triana, Daniel P. Lathrop
Flow between concentric spheres of radius ratio is studied in a 3 m outer diameter experiment. We have measured the torques required to mainta…
