The relation div ${\bf v}_s(t,{\bf r})=Q^{(4)}(t,{\bf r})\to -Q^{(4)}(-t,{\bf r})$ is considered for superfluid helium 4 and weakly interacting Bose gas. In respect to the latter it was shown that $Q^{(4)}$ is expressed in terms of the phase $χ$. It characterizes the order parameter $\langle ψ\rangle=\sqrt{ρ_c}e^{iχ}$ as a consequence of the broken gauge symmetry. So, similarly to the Josephson effect the phase has here significance.
