Vortical waves in a quantum fluid with vector, axial and helical charges. II. Dissipative effects by Sergio Morales-Tejera, Victor E. Ambruş, Maxim N. Chernodub

“…The non-conservation of helicity and chirality leads to a gapping of the Helical, Axial, and mixed Axial-Helical vortical waves that prevents their infrared modes from propagating. On the other hand, usual dissipative effects, such as charge diffusion, lead to significant damping of ultraviolet modes. …”
