A team of scientists have invented a technique to determine the dynamics of microscopic interacting particles by using image recognition to count the number of particles in an imaginary box. By ...

A drop of dye added to a glass of water undergoes ordinary diffusion. However, when placed on the surface of a foam, the dye ...

You dip your teabag into a cup of boiling water and watch the clear steaming liquid slowly change into an inviting rich red. The laws by which the particles of tea spread from the source of high ...

The diffusion of molecules is a fundamental mass transfer process where the random thermal motion of molecules in multi-component mixtures determines the relative motion of one species with respect to ...

The analysis of live-cell single-molecule imaging experiments can reveal valuable information about the heterogeneity of transport processes and interactions between cell components. These ...

A new study offers a clearer view of how mechanical stress and electrochemical processes interact inside lithium-ion batteries, providing a multi-scale framework that could support better battery ...

Physicists may have just cracked open a hidden side of the quantum world. For decades, every known particle was thought to belong to one of two categories — bosons or fermions — but researchers have ...
