Van Gogh's "The Starry Night" accurately depicts the energy distribution in turbulent flows. The painting's swirls follow Kolmogorov's law of turbulence, a key equation in physics. It also shows ...
It took 125 years, but in 2025 a team of mathematicians discovered the solution to a long-puzzling problem about the ...
Marathoners queuing up for a big race tend to go with the flow, surging toward the start line like a fluid. Using footage of runners moving in groups toward the start of the Chicago Marathon, ...
For decades scientists have been trying to solve Feynman's Sprinkler Problem: How does a sprinkler running in reverse—in which the water flows into the device rather than out of it—work? Through a ...
If you mix cornstarch and water in the right proportions, you get “oobleck”: something that seems not-quite-liquid but also not-quite-solid. Oobleck flows and settles like a liquid when untouched, but ...
When San To Chan successfully defended their PhD thesis, they received a gift of saltwater taffy to celebrate and couldn’t help being intrigued by the taffy’s unusual consistency: somewhere between a ...
Fluid situation: composite image of the remnant of SN 1987A. Neutrinos from such supernovae could provide clues about physics beyond the Standard Model. (Courtesy: Alma/NASA/ESA) Neutrinos created in ...
