Dispersions of polymer particles in a liquid phase (latexes) have many important applications in coatings technology, medical imaging, and cell biology. A team of researchers has now developed a ...

The void fraction, an important powder packing property, directly impacts many of the powder's physical characteristics and applications. To demonstrate how the variation in powder particle size ...

1. When offered a choice of sand having different particle sizes, Corophium volutator prefers fine to coarse over a range of sizes. On the basis of one experiment C. arenarium is indifferent to ...

With low particulate loading common in stack emissions these days, particulate matter measurement can be difficult using traditional techniques. Microscopical measurement of particle-size ...

A bimodal distribution often results from a process that involves the breakup of several sources of particles, different growth mechanisms, and large particles in a system. For instance, bimodal ...

It has long been known that the optical resonances of ultrahigh-Q whispering gallery mode resonators can split under the influence of particle scattering. Now scientists have exploited this splitting ...
