Period of work: 1989/90 – 2012 (from postmodern to modern), with many interruptions
Examples of further applications:•Theory of hurricanes …•Vortices in superfluids – vorticity quantization;•Hall effect in rotating 2D (Bose) gases (!);•Axion-magneto-hydrodynamics in the primordial plasma of the early universe growth of cosmic magnetic fields; etc.
(All this has been addressed and will be discussed again, another time!)
Thank you!
