What is Coarse-grained Pressure Dynamics in Superfluid Turbulence about?

Quantum mechanics places significant restrictions on the hydrodynamics of superfluid flows. Despite this it has been observed that turbulence in superfluids can, in a statistical sense, share many of the properties of its classical brethren; coherent bundles of superfluid vortices are often invoked as an important feature leading to this quasi-classical behavior. A recent experimental study [E. Rusaouen, B. Rousset, and P.-E. Roche, EPL, {\bf 118}, 1, 14005, (2017)] inferred the presence of these bundles through intermittency in the pressure field, however direct visualization of the quantized vortices to corroborate this finding was not possible. In this work, we performed detailed numerical simulations of superfluid turbulence at the level of individual quantized vortices through the vortex filament model. Through course-graining of the turbulent fields, we find compelling evidence supporting these conclusions at low temperature. Moreover, elementary simulations of an isolated bundle show that the number of vortices inside a bundle can be directly inferred from the magnitude of the pressure dip, with good theoretical agreement derived from the HVBK equations.
