• Abstract: We develop a quantitive analytical treatment of two-point velocity correlations for two important classes of superfluid excitation in compressible quantum fluids: vortices, and rarefaction pulses. We achieve this using two approaches. First, we introduce a new ansatz for describing vortex cores in planar quantum fluids with improved analytic integrability that provides analytic results for power spectra and velocity correlations for general vortex distributions, in good agreement with numerical results using the exact vortex shape. The results show signatures of short and long range correlations associated with vortex dipoles and vortex pairs respectively. Second, for the fast rarefaction pulse regime of the Jones-Roberts soliton the asymptotic high velocity wavefunction provides analytical results for the velocity power spectrum and correlation function, capturing the main length scale of the soliton. We compare our analytical treatment of the homogeneous system with numerical results for a trapped system, finding good quantitative agreement. Our results are relevant to experimental work to characterize quantum vortices and solitons in quantum fluids of atoms and light, and for studies of quantum turbulence.

• Correlation Spreading in Quantum Lattice Models with Variable-Range Interactions [0.0]
  We have investigated the spreading of quantum correlations in isolated lattice models with short- or long-range interactions driven far from equilibrium via sudden global quenches. We have shown that its causality cone displays a universal twofold structure consisting of a correlation edge and a series of local extrema. For long-range interactions, the motion of each structure is ballistic and the associated spreading velocities are related to the group and phase velocities of the quasiparticle dispersion relation of the post-quench Hamiltonian.
