Researchers at the University of Hawaiʻi have usedrare total solar eclipses to gain unprecedented insights into the turbulent ...

The irregular, swirling motion of fluids we call turbulence can be found everywhere, from stirring in a teacup to currents in ...

A team led by Shadia Habbal at the Institute for Astronomy — drawing on more than a decade of eclipse observations — for the first time clearly identified turbulent structures in the sun’s corona, ...

Researchers at the University of Hawaiʻi have uncovered new clues about how energy moves through the Sun’s outer atmosphere, ...

Journal of Applied Meteorology (1988-2005), Vol. 41, No. 12 (December 2002), pp. 1210-1224 (15 pages) ABSTRACT A NOAA P-3 research aircraft collected measurements in a storm off of the U.S. West Coast ...

Pioneering mathematical engineers have discovered for the first time a rigid structure which exists within the center of turbulence, leading to hope that its chaotic movement could be controlled in ...

A key hurdle for fusion researchers is understanding turbulence, the ripples and eddies that can cause the superhot plasma that fuels fusion reactions to leak heat and particles and keep fusion from ...

Abstract: Some of the most important properties of turbulent boundary layers are its mean flow and turbulence kinetic energy profiles. Townsend (1976) introduced the concept of wall-attached eddies ...

In interstellar dust clouds, turbulence must first dissipate before a star can form through gravity. A German-French research team has now discovered that the kinetic energy of the turbulence comes to ...
