Center vortices are fundamental topological configurations in Yang–Mills theory believed to encapsulate key aspects of the non‐perturbative QCD vacuum. In this framework, vortices appear as closed, ...

A new theory by fluid dynamics experts at the University of California, Berkeley, shows how “zombie vortices” help lead to the birth of a new star. Reporting today (Tuesday, Aug. 20) in the journal ...

Vortex is a natural fluid phenomenon that is often of great consequence in almost any practical flow, such as shear layers, ...

Their study of vortex ring motion in superfluid helium, published in Nature Communications, provides crucial evidence supporting a recently developed theoretical model of quantized vortices. "Our ...

Scientists have developed a novel method that dramatically enhances both the power and number of vortices, opening new ...
