Uncork a bottle of champagne, and as the pressure of the liquid is abruptly removed, bubbles immediately form and then rapidly begin the process of "coarsening," in which larger bubbles grow at the ...

We’ve all delighted in the simple joy of blowing bubbles, but most of us never stop to think about the underlying physics. Now French physicists have devised a mathematical model that precisely ...

Inspired by naturally occurring air bubbles in glaciers, researchers have developed a method to encode messages in ice. Published in Cell Reports Physical Science, the paper explains how the team ...

A study inspired by street performers making gigantic soap bubbles led to a discovery in fluid mechanics: Mixing different molecular sizes of polymers within a solution increases the ability of a thin ...

As you pour your Champagne to celebrate the New Year, remember that the physics behind those bubbles has some real-world applications. Courtesy of Flickr user Quinn Dombrowski Whatever the occasion, ...

Watch this bubble as it dissolves into drops. If you notice, the thinning portion loses it colors just before it bursts. Here’s why time, and decay, sap bubbles of their colors. These amazing photos ...

Language patterns could be predicted by simple laws of physics, a new study has found. A theory using ideas from physics predicts where and how dialects occur. Language patterns could be predicted by ...
