IN making some experiments on the mixture of liquids entering into another liquid at the extremity of a tube of small diameter, a phenomenon presented itself which attracted my attention as both new ...

Researchers have described for the first time the diffusion of liquid water through nanochannels in molecular terms; nanochannels are extremely tiny channels with a diameter of 1-100 nanometers that ...

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 ...

Physicists have found that some liquid metals which appear to be non-magnetic -- such as mercury, aluminium, gallium and lead -- actually contain magnetic moments that appear and disappear on ...

The focus of this thesis is to establish the timescale of interactions, physical and chemical, during dye-based inkjet ink imbibition into calcium carbonate (CaCO3) pigmented coatings. Comparison is ...

A new model has been created to explain how liquid diffuses through paper which has applications in medical testing and perfume manufacturing. A team of researchers from India have created a model to ...

This release is available in Spanish. An article published in Physical Review and conducted by researchers at the universities of Granada and Barcelona might lead to a revolutionary change in water ...
