In gases the particles move rapidly in all directions ... See how this affects the properties of the mixture you have made. For example, make up two samples of shear-thickening liquid with ...

In a surprising twist, a graduate student at UMass Amherst discovered a strange new fluid behavior that seems to defy thermodynamics. While experimenting with oil, water, and magnetized nickel ...

The Earth formed over 4.6 billion years ago out of a mixture of dust and gas around the young sun. It grew larger thanks to countless collisions between dust particles, asteroids, and other growing ...

The new sensor, on the other hand, is a practical all-arounder: It is very sensitive, can detect molecules of oxygen among a million gas particles ... oxygen in gas mixtures are estimated to ...

These particles grow via coagulation or gas-to-particle conversion to hundreds ... and specific constituents because of the complex mixture typically associated with PM. It is also possible ...

Inhaling smoke can be dangerous because it contains a mixture of hazardous gases and solid particles smaller than a human hair, called particulate matter (the EPA calls it PM2.5) which can easily ...

At CERN, the European Organisation for Nuclear Research in Geneva, an international research team led by the Paul Scherrer Institute PSI has conducted especially precise measurements of atmospheric ...
