We have studied the interaction of metastable $^4$He$_2^*$ excimer molecules with quantized vortices in superfluid $^4$He in the zero temperature limit. The vortices were generated by either rotation or ion injection. The trapping diameter of the molecules on quantized vortices was found to be $96pm6$,nm at a pressure of 0.1,bar and $27pm5$,nm at 5.0 bar. We have also demonstrated that a moving tangle of vortices can carry the molecules through the superfluid helium.

We study numerically nonuniform quantum turbulence of coflow in a square channel by the vortex filament model. Coflow means that superfluid velocity $bm{v}_s$ and normal fluid velocity $bm{v}_n$ flow in the same direction. Quantum turbulence for ther
mal counterflow has been long studied theoretically and experimentally. In recent years, experiments of coflow are performed to observe different features from thermal counterflow. By supposing that $bm{v}_s$ is uniform and $bm{v}_n$ takes the Hagen-Poiseiulle profile, our simulation finds that quantized vortices are distributed inhomogeneously. Vortices like to accumulate on the surface of a cylinder with $bm{v}_s simeq bm{v}_n$. Consequently, the vortex configuration becomes degenerate from three-dimensional to two-dimensional.
We report on studies of quantum turbulence with second-sound in superfluid 4He in which the turbulence is generated by the flow of the superfluid component through a wide square channel, the ends of which are plugged with sintered silver superleaks,
the flow being generated by compression of a bellows. The superleaks ensure that there is no net flow of the normal fluid. In an earlier paper (Phys. Rev. B, 86, 134515 (2012)) we have shown that steady flow of this kind generates a density of vortex lines that is essentially identical with that generated by thermal counterflow, when the average relative velocity between the two fluids is the same. In this paper we report on studies of the temporal decay of the vortex-line density, observed when the bellows is stopped, and we compare the results with those obtained from the temporal decay of thermal counterflow re-measured in the same channel and under the same conditions. In both cases here is an initial fast decay which, for low enough initial line density approaches for a short time the form $t^{-1}$ characteristic of the decay of a random vortex tangle. This is followed at late times by a slower $t^{-3/2}$ decay, characteristic of the decay of large quasi-classical eddies. However, in the range of investigated parameters, we observe always in the case of thermal counterflow, and only in a few cases of high steady-state velocity in superflow, an intermediate regime in which the decay either does not proceed monotonically with time or passes through a point of inflexion. This difference, established firmly by our experiments, might represent one essential ingredient for the full theoretical understanding of counterflow turbulence.
Although solid helium-4 (4He) may be a supersolid it also exhibits many phenomena unexpected in that context. We studied relaxation dynamics in the resonance frequency f(T) and dissipation D(T) of a torsional oscillator containing solid 4He. With the
appearance of the supersolid state, the relaxation times within f(T) and D(T) began to increase rapidly together. More importantly, the relaxation processes in both D(T) and a component of f(T) exhibited a complex synchronized ultraslow evolution towards equilibrium. Analysis using a generalized rotational susceptibility revealed that, while exhibiting these apparently glassy dynamics, the phenomena were quantitatively inconsistent with a simple excitation freeze-out transition because the variation in f was far too large. One possibility is that amorphous solid 4He represents a new form of supersolid in which dynamical excitations within the solid control the superfluid phase stiffness.
The coupled dynamics of quantum turbulence (QT) and normal-fluid turbulence (NFT) have been a central challenge in quantum hydrodynamics, since it is expected to cause the unsolved T2 state of QT. We numerically studied the coupled dynamics of the tw
o turbulences in thermal counterflow. NFT is driven by external forces to control its turbulent intensity, and the fast multipole method accelerates the calculation of QT. We show that NFT enhances QT via mutual friction. The vortex line density $L$ of the QT satisfies the statistical law $L^{1/2} approx gamma V_{ns}$ with the counterflow velocity $V_{ns}$. The obtained $gamma$ agrees with the experiment of T2 state, validating the idea that the T2 state is caused by NFT. We propose a theoretical insight into the relation between the two turbulences.
We study freely decaying quantum turbulence by performing high resolution numerical simulations of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation (GPE) in the Taylor-Green geometry. We use resolutions ranging from $1024^3$ to $4096^3$ grid points. The energy spectrum
confirms the presence of both a Kolmogorov scaling range for scales larger than the intervortex scale $ell$, and a second inertial range for scales smaller than $ell$. Vortex line visualizations show the existence of substructures formed by a myriad of small-scale knotted vortices. Next, we study finite temperature effects in the decay of quantum turbulence by using the stochastic Ginzburg-Landau equation to generate thermal states, and then by evolving a combination of these thermal states with the Taylor-Green initial conditions using the GPE. We extract the mean free path out of these simulations by measuring the spectral broadening in the Bogoliubov dispersion relation obtained from spatio-temporal spectra, and use it to quantify the effective viscosity as a function of the temperature. Finally, in order to compare the decay of high temperature quantum and that of classical flows, and to further calibrate the estimations of viscosity from the mean free path in the GPE simulations, we perform low Reynolds number simulations of the Navier-Stokes equations.
