Topological defects in Karman street behind heated cylinder

Abstract: 

In experiments it was found that heating of a cylinder streamlined by an air flow cause appearance of phase and amplitude modulations in a laminar Karman street. It was shown that an increase of phase modulation downstream results in appearance of topological defects in a spatially periodic structure of a vortex street. Statistical properties of such defects were studied.
