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 ...

When many particles do this simultaneously, an explosive dispersion occurs. Singh says that when small particles, such as flour or pollen, come in contact with a liquid surface, they immediately ...

Several years ago, scientists discovered that a single microscopic particle could rock back and forth on its own under a ...

Researchers have found that attractive and repulsive interactions between particles are both essential to form structural order that controls the dynamics of glass-forming liquids. This knowledge will ...

Everything around us is made up of tiny pieces or particles. The particles which make up matter are atoms or molecules. Our body, chair, table, book etc. all are made up of particles. The evidence of ...

Solids, liquids and gases. In a solid like this brick, the particles are regularly arranged touching their neighbours and move only by vibrating. This explains why solids have a fixed shape. In a ...
