No better solution to studying ever-draining foams than applying a strong magnetic field to keep the liquid in the foam at a standstill by levitating its water molecules. Foams fascinate, partly due ...

Sail beneath a levitating sea — upside down? Through a couple of sleights of science, a team of French scientists showed that not only could they make a layer of viscous liquid hover in midair but ...

Crystals that don't experience mechanical stress during growth, will be of superior quality. Researchers are looking into the ability to levitate the liquid metal in a new study. Crystals that don't ...

Refractory ceramic liquids studied by containerless levitation and synchrotron X-ray scattering reveal an unusual density-driven liquid–liquid phase transition. Figure 1: A levitated ceramic liquid ...

We’ve all seen acoustic levitation, it’s one of the scientific novelties of our age and a regular on the circuit of really impressive physical demonstrations of science to the public. The sight of ...

Michelle Starr is CNET's science editor, and she hopes to get you as enthralled with the wonders of the universe as she is. When she's not daydreaming about flying through space, she's daydreaming ...

Foams fascinate, partly due to their short lifespan. Foams change as fluid drains out of their structure over time. It is precisely their ephemeral nature which has, until now, prevented scientists ...
