Turbulent superstructures in Rayleigh-Bénard convection

Turbulent fluids in nature, counter-intuitively, can exhibit large-scale order that persists for long times. Pandey et al. numerically characterize the formation of these superstructures in turbulent convection by separating the fast motions at small-scales from those that gradually vary at large sc...
