This book is primarily concerned with turbulence in superfluid helium.Quantized vorticity has traditionally generated great interest amongphysicists but there are now also important engineering applications such asliquid helium cooling of superconducting magnets. Presently much research isdone on the relationship between superfluid turbulence and classicalturbulence as intense turbulence can be generated in liquid helium due to itssmall kinematic viscosity. There is also a close relationship betweensuperfluid behaviour and quantized vorticity in liquid helium and in atomicBoseEinstein condensates. Putting special emphasis on the interplay betweenthe different disciplines involved this readable account of recent researchwill appeal not only to established researchers but also to newcomers andgraduate students wishing to enter the field.
