Recent data have led to conflicting views with the majority of studies supporting the model of turbulence turning into an attracting state. Here we present lifetime measurements of turbulence in pipe flow spanning 8 orders of magnitude in time, drastically extending all previous investigations. We show that no critical point exists in this regime and that in contrast to the prevailing view the turbulent state remains transient. To our knowledge this is the first observation of superexponential transients in turbulence, confirming a conjecture derived from low-dimensional systems.","lang":"eng"}],"doi":"10.1103/PhysRevLett.101.214501","type":"journal_article","_id":"2795","publication":"Physical Review Letters","issue":"21","publication_status":"published","title":"Repeller or attractor?
