Vortex dynamics encompasses the study of rotating fluid structures that span scales from centimetre-sized eddies in engineering applications to kilometre-scale systems in the atmosphere and oceans.

An Australian-led study has provided new insight into the behaviour of rotating superfluids. A defining feature of superfluids is that they exhibit quantised vortices – they can only rotate with one, ...

Step inside the strange world of a superfluid, a liquid that can flow endlessly without friction, defying the common-sense rules we experience every day, where water pours, syrup sticks and coffee ...
