A one-dimensional mathematical model describes what causes wine to cry at the APS March meeting in Boston.
3D Printed Flight Suit
EOS and Gravity want to revolutionize human transport with a pioneering flight suit.
Why the Social Cost of Carbon Will Always Be Disputed
A key reason is that the unique complexity of the Earth system, and the unprecedentedness of likely climate change over the next century, mean the economic value of future climate damage cannot be estimated by normal scientific methods.
A Journey to Touch the Sun
On August 11, NASA’s Parker Solar Probe took off to travel closer to the Sun, deeper into the solar atmosphere, than any mission before it.
Magnetic Helical Microswimmers
The fabrication of microhelices with semi-hard-magnetic characteristics using template-assisted electroforming is reported.
Microbial Sensors Based on ZnO Nanorod Arrays [Video]
The size, shape, and order of nanorods in solid-state microbial sensors are controlled using the forces of gravity and magnetism.
Photogravitactic Microswimmers
Artificial photochemically-active microswimmers, with 2D or 3D swimming behavior, can also swim against gravity.
Biomanufacturing in Zero-G
Science fact catches up with science fiction: by exploiting magnetic levitation, biomanufacturing – creating living 3D structures – is now possible in zero gravity. Utkan Demirci discusses how this works.
Liquid Metals Exploit Electrochemistry to form Soft Circuitry at Low Voltage
Exploiting electrochemistry to gain control over the interactions of liquid metal droplets enables reversible switching for soft circuitry.
Atomic Force Microscopy Captures the Liquid/Liquid Interface
Stabilizing interfacial layers enable atomic force microscopy imaging of soft and dynamic liquid/liquid interfaces without any solid support.
