Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We study analytically and numerically quantum turbulence (QT) in superfluid helium and atomic Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs). 1. Superfluid helium: 1-1. We study QT created by a vibrating sphere and find anisotropy of the vortex tangle. 1-2. We study inhomogeneous QT in thermal counterflow in a square channel. 1-3. We find logarithmic velocity profile of QT in a channel. 1-4. We study coflow where superfluid and normal fluid flow toward the same direction. This system was found to have an attractor into which vortices are attracted by mutual friction. 2. Atomic BEC: 2-1. We study spin-superflow coupled turbulence in spinor BECs. The power law of each energy spectrum is analytically obtained and confirmed numerically. 2-2. Bogoriubov wave turbulence is studied. The power laws of the correlation function are obtained from the weak wave turbulence theory, and confirmed numerically. 2-3. We find direct and inverse cascades of spin wave turbulence in spinor BEC.
