# gst: vortex-pair dance and oscillation

       Fig. 4

This AA study << focuses on fundamental dynamics of vortex-pair fields, specifically known as vortex-pair beams (VPBs) in optics. VPBs have gained increasing attention due to their unique properties, including vortex attraction and repulsion. Here, (AA)  explore the dynamics of pure-phase VPBs (PPVPBs) and observe intriguing helical and intertwined behaviors of vortices, resembling a vortex-pair dance. >>

They << uncover the oscillation property of the intervortex distance for PPVPBs in free space. The observed dancing and oscillation phenomena are intricately tied to the initial intervortex distance and can be explained well in the hydrodynamic picture. Notably, the vortex dancing and oscillation alter the process of vortex-pair annihilation, extending the survival range for opposite vortices. >>

<< This discovery enhances our understanding of vortex interactions and sheds light on the intricate dynamics of both vortex-vortex and vortex-antivortex interactions. >>

# gst: order and chaos in systems of coaxial vortex pairs

Fig. B.12: Ex. with 4 interact. vortex pairs

AA << have analyzed interactions between two and three coaxial vortex pairs, classifying their dynamics as either ordered or chaotic based on strengths, initial sizes, and initial horizontal separations.  >>️

They << found that periodic cases are scattered among chaotic ones across different initial configurations. Quasi-periodic leapfrogging typically occurs when the initial distances between the vortex pairs are small and cannot coexist with vortex-pair overtake. When the initial configuration splits into two interacting vortex pairs and a single propagating vortex pair, the two interacting pairs consistently exhibit periodic leapfrogging. For the smallest initial horizontal separations, the system predominantly exhibits chaotic or quasi-periodic motions rather than periodic leapfrogging with a single frequency. This behavior is due to the strong coupling between all three vortex pairs. When the pairs are in close proximity, more complex and chaotic dynamics emerge instead of periodic motion. >>

Their << findings indicate that quasi-periodic leapfrogging and chaotic interactions generally occur when the three vortex pairs have similar strengths and initial sizes. Conversely, discrepancies in these parameters cause the system to disintegrate into two subsystems: a single propagating vortex pair and two periodically leapfrogging pairs. >>️

<< Vortices and dark solitons are fundamental defects that appear in nonlinear physics at all scales, from nonlinear optics to cosmic fluids. In two or three dimensions, dark solitons are fundamentally connected to highly ordered vortex states through an intrinsic modulation instability in the surrounding matter. >>️

By quenching the confining box potential, [they] observe an RDS emitted from the edge and its peculiar signature in the radial motion. As an RDS evolves, [they] observe transverse modulations at discrete azimuthal angles, which clearly result in a patterned formation of a circular vortex dipole array.

# gst: complex flows by hairpin vortices behind hills with different scales

 << In the flow around protuberance, separation bubbles occur ahead and behind the protuberance, and a coherent vortex structure exists in the wake. In such a flow field, heat, substance, and momentum are actively transported by the vortex. (..) When multiple protuberances are set in the flow, the wakes of the protuberances interfere with each other, resulting in complicated flows. >> 

 << This study performed a numerical analysis of the hairpin vortex and heat transport generated by the interference of the wakes behind two hills in a laminar boundary layer. In the case of hills with the same scale, the interference between hairpin vortices in the wake is more intensive than in the different-scale hills. When the hills with different scales are installed, hairpin vortices with different scales are periodically shed. >> 

 

  << Regardless of the scale ratio of the hills, when the hill spacing in the spanwise direction is narrowed, the asymmetry of the hairpin vortex in the wake increases due to the interference between the wakes. At this time, the turbulence caused by the leg and the horn-shaped secondary vortex on the spanwise center side in the hairpin vortex increases, and heat transport around the hairpin vortex becomes active. >>

The creation process involves the formation of a vortex ring street, i.e., a chain of magnetic vortex rings with an alternative linking manner.

# gst: when a turbulence can be confined

<< Turbulence is hard to control. Its ephemeral nature prevents us from treating it as an ordinary state of matter. Here (AA) create a stationary and isolated blob of turbulence using only elemental building blocks: vortex rings.  The turbulence is confined in a spherical region, surrounded by a quiescent environment, initiated and sustained by vortex rings. Crucially, vortex rings can be endowed with conserved quantities such as energy and helicity, which can be transferred to the turbulent state. Using 2D particle image velocimetry and 3D particle tracking velocimetry, (AA) demonstrate how confinement of turbulence occurs when vortex rings repeatedly collide, in contrast to coherent vortex reconnections. The pathlines depict the difference between these states of flow. >>️

# gst: apropos of modulational instabilities, the case of vortex-ring quantum droplets in a radially-periodic potential.

FIG. 11: (Color online) Typical examples of stable nested patterns with soliton and vortex QDs (quantum droplets)  which were created in adjacent radial troughs. In panels (a1-b4) the pattern was created from the initial dynamical states with parameters (N,S,On) = (46,0,2) and (N,S,On) = (35,1,1) in the outer and inner troughs, respectively. In panels (c1-d4) the input was taken with parameter sets (N,S,On) = (120,1,3) and (N,S,On) = (46,0,2) in the outer and inner troughs.

AA << establish stability and characteristics of two-dimensional (2D) vortex ring-shaped quantum droplets (QDs) formed by binary Bose-Einstein condensates. >>️

<< another noteworthy option is to construct a two-ring complex in which one vortex-ring component is subject to the MI  (modulational instability), hence it is replaced by an azimuthal soliton (or maybe several solitons), (..), while the vortex component trapped in another potential trough avoids the azimuthal MI and remains essentially axisymmetric. >>️

<< Examples of such heterogeneous robust states, produced by simulations of Eq. (3), are displayed in Fig. 11. Panels 11(a1-b4) show a complex in which the MI takes place in the outer circular trough, producing an azimuthal soliton which performs rotary motion, while the inner vortex ring is  modulationally stable. An opposite example is produced in Figs. 11(c1-d4), where the outer vortex ring remains stable against azimuthal perturbations, while the MI creates a soliton exhibiting the rotary motion in the embedded (inner) circular trough. The rotation direction of the soliton is driven by the vorticity sign of the underlying QD (quantum droplet). It is relevant to mention that the multi-ring potential considered here holds different vortex-ring or azimuthal-soliton states nearly isolating them from each other. (..) An additional problem, which is left for subsequent analysis, is interplay between adjacent radial modes in the case when the separation between the adjacent rings is essentially smaller. >>️

# gst: vortex structures under dimples and scars in turbulent free-surface flows

<< Turbulence beneath a free surface leaves characteristic long-lived signatures on the surface, such as upwelling 'boils', near-circular 'dimples' and elongated 'scars', easily identifiable by eye, e.g., in riverine flows. >>️

AA << explore the connection between these surface signatures and the underlying vortical structures. We investigate dimples, known to be imprints of surface-attached vortices, and scars, which have yet to be extensively studied, by analysing the conditional probabilities that a point beneath a signature is within a vortex core as well as the inclination angles of sub-signature vorticity. >>️

<< The analysis shows that the likelihood of vortex presence beneath a dimple decreases from the surface down through the viscous and blockage layers in a near-Gaussian manner, influenced by the dimple's size and the bulk turbulence. When expressed as a function of depth over the Taylor microscale λT, this probability is independent of Reynolds and Weber number. >>️

<< Conversely, the probability of finding a vortex beneath a scar increases sharply from the surface to a peak at the edge of the viscous layer, at a depth of approximately λT/4. Distributions of vortical orientation also show a clear pattern: a strong preference for vertical alignment below dimples and an equally strong preference for horizontal alignment below scars. >>️

AA << findings suggest that scars can be defined as imprints of horizontal vortices approximately a quarter of the Taylor microscale beneath the surface, analogous to how dimples can be defined as imprints of surface-attached vertical vortex tubes. >>

This is based both on a graviton-condensate description of a black hole as well as on a correspondence between black holes and generic objects with maximal entropy compatible with unitarity, so-called saturons. (They) show that due to vorticity, a Q-ball-type saturon of a calculable renormalizable theory obeys the same extremality bound on the spin as the black hole. Correspondingly, a black hole with extremal spin emerges as a graviton condensate with vorticity. (..) Next, (AA) show that in the presence of mobile charges, the global vortex traps a magnetic flux of the gauge field. This can have macroscopically observable consequences. >>

# gst: tandem droplets accelerated by continuous uniform airflow.

<< In a dense droplet environment, droplets influence each other's motion, deformation, and breakup behavior. The tandem droplet is a particularly relevant case for the study of its unsteady dynamic behavior. >>

<< A three-dimensional numerical simulation study was conducted to investigate the deformation process of tandem droplets under different conditions. >>

<< The results of the research show that under conditions of high density ratio and a significant Reynolds number, the edge morphological characteristics of droplets are predominantly influenced by the Rayleigh-Taylor instability. In the case of low density ratios, the pressure drag force on the leeward side exerts a dominant influence on the accelerated motion of the leading droplet. The shape of the droplet is significantly influenced by the vortex ring present in the recirculation region. The perturbation of the liquid edge induces the vortex ring to split into secondary vortex rings, which act back on the droplet, thereby affecting its morphological characteristics. The trailing droplet is subject to a reduction in cross-flow radius, drag coefficient, minimum length, and expansion speed of the liquid bag due to the influence of the wake of the leading droplet. The decrease in Reynolds number and relative distance leads to a stronger suppression effect, while the decrease in density ratio shortens the length of the recirculation region, thereby weakening the suppression of trailing droplets. >>

# gst: apropos of transitions, the vortex dynamics from a twisted baker map

<< A natural approach to understanding complicated systems is to analyze a col­lection of simple examples that retain some essential features of the complexity of the original systems. The baker map (..) is one of the simplest models of chaotic dynamical systems. It divides the unit square into p ≥ 2 equal vertical strips, and maps each strip to a horizontal one by squeezing it vertically by the factor p and stretching it horizontally by the same factor. The horizontal strips are laid out covering the square. Due to the squeezing/stretching, small initial errors get amplified under iteration, and results in an unpredictable long-term behavior. The name “baker” is used since the action of the map is reminiscent of the kneading dough (..). In this paper (AA) introduce a piecewise linear model of an interaction of stretching and twisting that produces vortex dynamics. >>
