The nucleation of vorticity by ions in superfluid 4He I. Basic theory - The nucleation of vorticity by ions in superfluid 4He I. Basic theory

A theory is developed of vortex nucleation by an ion moving in superfluid helium at a low temperature. It is shown that production of a vortex loop attached to the side of the ion becomes energetically possible when the velocity of the ion exceeds a critical value, but that nucleation is impeded by...
