AI Article Synopsis

  • Tanogami's paper suggests a new model of quantum turbulence, claiming that energy distribution at smaller scales is influenced by a quantum stress cascade rather than the expected Kelvin-wave cascade.
  • The Comment aims to address some physical concerns regarding Tanogami's derivation of the quantum stress cascade.
  • A key point raised is the neglect of the importance of circulation quantization in Tanogami's analysis.

Article Abstract

In a recent paper, Tanogami [Phys. Rev. E 103, 023106 (2021)2470-004510.1103/PhysRevE.103.023106] proposes a scenario for quantum turbulence where the energy spectrum at scales smaller than the intervortex distance is dominated by a quantum stress cascade, in opposition to Kelvin-wave cascade predictions. The purpose of the present Comment is to highlight some physical issues in the derivation of the quantum stress cascade, in particular to stress that quantization of circulation has been ignored.

When a two-component mixture of immiscible fluids is stirred, the fluids are split into smaller domains with more vigorous stirring. We numerically investigate the sizes of such domains in a fully developed turbulent state of a two-component superfluid stirred with energy input rate ε. For the strongly immiscible condition, the typical domain size is shown to be proportional to ε^{-2/5}, as predicted by the Kolmogorov-Hinze theory in classical fluids.

Observation of an Inverse Turbulent-Wave Cascade in a Driven Quantum Gas.

We observe an inverse turbulent-wave cascade, from small to large length scales, in a driven homogeneous 2D Bose gas. Starting with an equilibrium condensate, we drive the gas isotropically on a length scale much smaller than its size, and observe a nonthermal population of modes with wavelengths larger than the drive one. At long drive times, the gas exhibits a steady nonthermal momentum distribution.

We consider turbulence of waves interacting weakly via four-wave scattering (sea waves, plasma waves, spin waves, etc.). In the first order in the interaction, a closed kinetic equation has stationary solutions describing turbulent cascades.

This study introduces and experimentally demonstrates the concept of a modified anomalous vortex beam (MAVB), which carries orbital angular momentum (OAM) and exhibits unique self-focusing properties. By utilizing holographic techniques and customizing phase masks, we precisely control the beam's phase and intensity distribution, enhancing self-focusing behavior while preserving traditional anomalous vortex beam features. We derive an analytical formula to describe MAVB propagation within a paraxial ABCD optical system.

Research has shown that free-space laser communication systems may experience fewer outages due to atmospheric impairments such as haze, fog, clouds, and turbulence by operating at a longer wavelength in the mid-wave or long-wave infrared, if disadvantages such as lower-performance transceiver components may be overcome. Here we report a resonant cavity infrared detector (RCID) with 4.6-µm resonance wavelength that enables 20-dB larger link budget than has been reported previously for ∼ 5 Gb/s operation.
