For the first time, scientists have caught a glimpse of a strange and elusive creature in the world of quantum physics—a semi ...

For the first time, ETH materials scientists are measuring the rolling friction of tiny, micrometre-sized particles. These ...

The term “granular flows” refers to a system of solid particles in which the flow behavior is dictated solely by particle-particle and particle-wall interactions (i.e., the role of the interstitial ...

The traditional film model for particle dissolution assumes that flux behavior depends primarily on particle size relative to ...

are used in science to help explain scientific concepts. The particle model is the name for the diagrams used to draw solids, liquids and gases. In the model, the particles are shown as circles or ...

Light’s dual nature, manifesting as both wave-like and particle-like behaviour, is a phenomenon known as wave-particle duality and remains one of the most perplexing mysteries in quantum mechanics.

From ketchup and paint to concrete and orange juice, many everyday materials are what scientists call suspensions—liquids ...

PARTICLE growth in supersaturated solutions has stimulated much theoretical and experimental work, but less attention has been paid to the subsequent reaction of particle coarsening in a matrix of ...

First, they sifted through data collected by the LHCb detector during the first and second runs of the LHC (which lasted from 2009 to 2013 and from 2015 to 2018, respectively) in search of the decay ...

We show that a single spinning particle can show indubitable evidence of quantum behavior. One hundred years ago, Dutch ...

A strong answer will mention the behaviour of the particles in both solids and liquids and link ... an electrical heating element. Use the particle model above to describe how the heating element ...
