A spinning top submerged in a liquid can make a striking fractal structure. Fractals are patterns and structures that repeat themselves at smaller scales when zoomed in. Bavand Keshavarz and Michela ...

The liquid crystals used in displays nowadays are usually in a nematic phase, i.e. a liquid-like state of almost parallel oriented molecules. However, there is another liquid crystal phase which has a ...

The separation process can be conducted using various instruments, but the most fitting method depends on the mixture’s properties. This article covers the importance of solid-liquid separation in the ...

Understanding the molecular interactions in binary liquid mixtures is fundamental to both theoretical studies and practical applications in chemistry and engineering. In these systems, the diverse ...

The best way to understand glass is to understand how it is made. The first step to make glass requires heating up a mixture of minerals – often soda ash, limestone and quartz sand – until they melt ...

The very first life on earth is thought to have developed from 'protocells' -- liquid mixtures of many different types of molecules. Researchers have now shown that in such mixtures, small imbalances ...

Scientists have discovered a way to write directly into liquid water, creating clear and long-lasting patterns which float below the surface of the fluid. In the new study, published Aug. 21 in the ...

When liquids containing small particles evaporate, those fluids often leave behind fingerprints like coffee rings or whiskey webs (SN: 10/31/19). But liquids mixed with other liquids leave their own ...

There are many ways to add power to your vehicle. It ranges from the cost-efficient modifications you can make to the more expensive engine and supercharging upgrades your mechanic will have to ...
