Abstract
The motion of quantized vortices is studied using a vibrating wire in superfluid 4He. A vortex filtering method provides a superfluid practically free of remanent vortices in which the vibration of a wire cannot generate turbulence. Vortex lines are produced by cooling through the superfluid transition and remain forming bridges between a wire and a surrounding wall. Bridged remanent vortices increase the resonance frequency of a vibrating wire: the rate of an increase due to the remanent vortices is constant in a laminar flow regime and steeply increases in a turbulent flow regime with increasing wire velocity. These results suggest that oscillation of the bridged vortices provides a linear contribution to the wire vibration in the laminar flow regime, until instability occurs in the oscillation of the vortices, causing turbulence.
