Superfluid (quantum) turbulence and distributed chaos
  Properties of distributed chaos in superfluid (quantum) turbulence have been studied using the data of recent direct numerical simulations (HVBK two-fluid model for He II, and a moving grid in the frames of Gross-Pitaevskii model of the Bose-Einstein condensates at low temperatures). It is found that for the viscous (normal) component of the velocity field in He II the viscosity dominates the distributed chaos with the stretched exponential spectrum $\exp(-k/k_{\beta})^{\beta}$ and $\beta = 2/3$. For the superfluid component the distributed chaos is dominated by the vorticity correlation integral with $\beta =1/2$ (the soft spontaneous breaking of the space translational symmetry - homogeneity). For very low temperature the distributed chaos is tuned to the large-scale coherent motions: the viscous (normal) component is tuned to the fundamental mode, whereas the superfluid component is subharmonically tuned. For the Gross-Pitaevskii superfluid turbulence incompressible part of the energy spectrum (containing the vortices contribution) also indicates the distributed chaos dominated by the vorticity correlation integral ($\beta =1/2$) and the subharmonic tuning to the large-scale coherent motions.
