Universal profile of the vortex condensate in two-dimensional turbulence

An inverse turbulent cascade in a restricted two-dimensional periodic domain creates a condensate-a pair of coherent system-size vortices. We perform extensive numerical simulations of this system and carry out theoretical analysis based on momentum and energy exchanges between the turbulence and th...
