Laboratory experiments on rotating quasi-Keplerian flows, for which the angular velocity decreases radially but the angular momentum increases, are however laminar at Reynolds numbers exceeding one million. This is in apparent contradiction to direct numerical simulations showing that in these experiments turbulence transition is triggered by the axial boundaries. We here show numerically that as the Reynolds number increases, turbulence becomes progressively confined to the boundary layers and the flow in the bulk fully relaminarizes. Our findings support that turbulence is unlikely to occur in isothermal constant-density quasi-Keplerian flows."}],"publist_id":"6371","publisher":"Cambridge University Press","citation":{"chicago":"Lopez Alonso, Jose M, and Marc Avila. “Boundary Layer Turbulence in Experiments on Quasi Keplerian Flows.” <i>Journal of Fluid Mechanics</i>.
