Meeting Goals:
The Simons Collaboration on Wave Turbulence has brought together scientists and mathematicians working in disparate areas, but with a common goal of understanding, verifying, and constructing a rigorous theory of wave turbulence. They have been meeting, discussing, and collaborating to achieve their goals. Scientists and mathematicians working within this collaboration have made substantial progress during the past four years. They have conducted experiments and have reported the first observation of weak inertial wave turbulence. In other experiments they have observed weak turbulence of internal waves.
Mathematically they have provided a rigorous proof of the validity of the wave kinetic equation, which is a central component of the theory. They have also analytically obtained solutions of these kinetic equations.
The Simons Collaboration on Wave Turbulence Annual Meeting intends to provide the latest on our collaborative research, as well as highlighting important external research from related fields, with the scope of further developing the collaborative research approach started by the PIs of the grant.
