Scientists from IFP SB RAS and NSU have confirmed that electrons can behave like a hydrodynamic vortex can form in it. The researchers separated ballistic waves, where particles hardly collide, and hydrodynamic waves, where electrons often collide and interact with each other. The new method is more reliable and easier than those usually used to identify westerners - scanning microscopy and SQUID magnetism, which imposes high demands on equipment. The discovery will allow us to develop a convenient tool for confirming electronic hydrodynamics and open opportunities for studying electronic-liquid effects in graphene. The results of the work were published in the journal Nanomechanical Detection of Vortices in an Electron Fluid (A. Shevyrin, A.K. Bakarov, A.G. Pogosov). Read more on the RAS website.
