Journal ArticleDOI

The von Karman Sodium experiment: Turbulent dynamical dynamos

TL;DR: In this article, the self-generation of a stationary dynamo when the flow forcing is R-pi-symmetric, i.e., when the impellers rotate in opposite directions at equal angular velocities, is studied.
Journal ArticleDOI

Power injected in dissipative systems and the fluctuation theorem

TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider three examples of dissipative dynamical systems involving many degrees of freedom, driven far from equilibrium by a constant or time dependent forcing and study the statistical properties of injected and dissipated power as well as the fluctuations of the total energy of these systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chaotic Dynamos Generated by a Turbulent Flow of Liquid Sodium

TL;DR: The observation of several dynamical regimes of the magnetic field generated by a turbulent flow of liquid sodium (VKS experiment) shows the low dimensional nature of these dynamics is not smeared out by the very strong turbulent fluctuations of the flow.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fluctuations of energy flux in wave turbulence.

TL;DR: It is reported that the power driving gravity and capillary wave turbulence in a statistically stationary regime displays fluctuations much stronger than its mean value and the probability density function (PDF) has a most probable value close to zero and involves two asymmetric roughly exponential tails.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transition to the ultimate regime in a radiatively driven convection experiment

TL;DR: In this article, the transition between two regimes of heat transport in a radiatively driven convection experiment is described, where a fluid gets heated up within a tunable heating length.
