Water droplets create “microlightning” when they split, producing electrical discharges without any external power source These tiny electrical sparks can transform simple gases into complex organic ...

Mechanical engineers have devised a diagnostic platform that uses sound waves to spin an individual drop of water up to 6000 revolutions per minute. These speeds separate tiny biological particles ...

Your journey as a water droplet through Tallahassee’s waterways—busy campus creeks to peaceful parks, downstream lakes, ...

We all know the ingredients for water. You take two atoms of hydrogen and one of oxygen, moosh them together just so, and voila – you have a molecule of the most important compound to life on Earth.

Researchers explain a new mechanism for ice formation. Ice can form near the free surface of a water droplet via small precursors with a structure resembling ice 0. These are readily formed by ...

A water-powered nanogenerator uses droplet formation to convert flowing water into electricity, providing a clean, inexpensive energy source for small devices, sensors, and self-powered environmental ...

This blue-glowing water is being spun around by nothing but sound waves. Reaching speeds up to 6,000 RPM, this centrifuge forms the basis for a new type of inexpensive, point-of-care biomedical test.
