Sound waves near a loudspeaker cause air particles in their path to move in a repeating pattern. Goree’s research uses laser light to move solid particles, less than 10 microns in diameter, in a ...

A novel study demonstrates that droplets at a miniscule level can be precisely controlled, opening new avenues in micro-scale ...

Over the past few years, studies have suggested that plastic particles from bottles, food packaging and waste have been detected in human blood, lungs, placentas, arteries and even the brain. But a ...

Some things are easier to achieve if you're not alone. As researchers from the University of Rostock, Germany have shown, ...

Powder is a collection of single solid particles, which in most cases may be considered a basic unit. Powder is typically comprised of solid particles, interparticle voids, as well as open and closed ...

Scientists at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory are developing the next generation of solid-fuel ramjet propulsion, ...

Life on Earth relies upon an astonishingly short list of elements. Carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen compose the essential structure of all living things, trace amounts of metals like iron and calcium ...

The precise control of tiny droplets on surfaces is essential for advanced manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, and next‐generation lab‐on‐a‐chip diagnostics. However, once droplet volume reaches pico- and ...

Scientists at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory are developing the next generation of solid-fuel ramjet (SFRJ) propulsion, ...
