Theoretical possibility of standing turbulence in mono-atomic gases
Abstract
The paper discusses the possibility of turbulence in non-flowing mono-atomic gases, a phenomenon we call Standing Turbulence. We derive the critical temperature at which a mono-atomic gas will reach Standing Turbulence using the Muriel-Dresden Microscopic Theory of Turbulence, wherein we use the cell model for the internal energy states of the mono-atomic gas. Then we give specific calculations for helium.
