Quantum Turbulence

Turbulence plays a crucial role in contexts ranging from galaxy formation to heavy atomic nuclei, from jet engines to arterial blood flow, challenging engineers, physicists, and mathematicians. Recently, turbulence of quantum fluids displaying superfluidity has emerged as an exciting area of interdisciplinary research that spans fluid dynamics, low-temperature physics, and Bose-Einstein condensation. The first book on quantum turbulence, this work describes state-of-the-art results and techniques, stressing analogies and differences with classical turbulence. The authors focus in particular on low temperature phases of liquid helium, drawing on evidence from recent experiments, theory, and numerical simulations. Written by leading figures in the field, this is a go-to reference for students and researchers at all levels.

紊流在各種情境中扮演著重要角色，從星系形成到重型原子核，從噴射引擎到動脈血流，都對工程師、物理學家和數學家提出了挑戰。最近，展現超流性的量子流體的紊流已成為跨越流體動力學、低溫物理學和玻色-愛因斯坦凝聚的令人興奮的跨學科研究領域。作為第一本關於量子紊流的書籍，本書描述了最新的研究成果和技術，強調了與經典紊流的類比和差異。作者特別關注液態氦的低溫相，並借鑒了最近的實驗、理論和數值模擬的證據。本書由該領域的領先人物撰寫，是學生和研究人員在各個層次上的必備參考資料。
