On polygonal relative equilibria in the N-vortex problem
Helmholtz’s equations provide the motion of a system of N vortices which describes a planar incompressible fluid. A relative equilibrium is a particular solution of these equations for which the distances between the particles are invariant during the motion. In this article, we are interested in relative equilibria formed of concentric regular polygons of vortices. We show that in the case of ...
متن کاملStructure and stability of the compressible Stuart vortex
The structure and twoand three-dimensional stability properties of a linear array of compressible Stuart vortices (CSV; Stuart 1967; Meiron et al. 2000) are investigated both analytically and numerically. The CSV is a family of steady, homentropic, two-dimensional solutions to the compressible Euler equations, parameterized by the free-stream Mach number M∞, and the mass flux inside a single vo...
متن کاملAngular momentum of optical vortex arrays.
Guided by the aim to construct light fields with spin-like orbital angular momentum (OAM), that is light fields with a uniform and intrinsic OAM density, we investigate the OAM of arrays of optical vortices with rectangular symmetry. We find that the OAM per unit cell depends on the choice of unit cell and can even change sign when the unit cell is translated. This is the case even if the OAM i...
متن کاملSpontaneous vortex nanodomain arrays at ferroelectric heterointerfaces.
The polarization of the ferroelectric BiFeO(3) sub-jected to different electrical boundary conditions by heterointerfaces is imaged with atomic resolution using a spherical aberration-corrected transmission electron microscope. Unusual triangular-shaped nanodomains are seen, and their role in providing polarization closure is understood through phase-field simulations. Heterointerfaces are key ...
متن کاملTwin-boundary pinning of superconducting vortex arrays.
We discuss the low-temperature dynamics of magnetic flux lines in high-temperature superconductors in the presence of a family of parallel twin planes that contain the c axis. A current applied along the twin planes drives flux motion in the direction transverse to the planes and acts like an electric field applied to one-dimensional carriers in disordered semiconductors. As in flux arrays with...
