Rapidly Rotating Wall-Mode Convection
Geoffrey M. Vasil, Keaton J. Burns, Daniel Lecoanet +3
In the rapidly rotating limit, we derive a balanced set of reduced equations governing the strongly nonlinear development of the convective wall-mode instability in the interior of…

Diffusivity-Free Turbulence in Liquid Metal Rotating Rayleigh-Bénard Convection Experiments
Jewel A. Abbate, Yufan Xu, Tobias Vogt +3
Convection in planets and stars is predicted to occur in the "ultimate regime'' of diffusivity-free, rapidly rotating turbulence, in which flows are characteristically unaffected b…
