Vizualization of quantized vortices

Article Abstract:

The small particles of solid hydrogen are generated and it can be used to image the cores of quantized vortices in their three-dimensional environment of liquid helium. This method has enabled the geometry and interactions of these vortices to be observed directly.

Suddenly it's chaos

Article Abstract:

Vortices is injected in the superfluid helium 3 to study the turbulence behavior of fluid. The observation of the vortex in rotating helium-3 at microkelvin temperatures predicts the rotating neutron superfluids inside neutron stars.

A new twist to an old story

Article Abstract:

Vortices in superfluids are examined as superfluid analogues of cosmic string, which, if they exist, are the relics of frozen cosmic turbulence.
