Title: Hydrodynamics of 2D quantum vortices

Abstract:
In this talk I will outline a hydrodynamic reformulation of the point vortex model.
The theory describes point vortices as a distinct fluid, with equations of motion in hydrodynamic form that are fundamentally different from the equation of motion for the superfluid. I will describe a number of anomalous predictions of the theory due to the quantum nature of the vortices.

 

Looking forward to seeing many of you at the seminar!
