Quincke rotation is defined as the spontaneous steady rotation of a dielectric particle immersed in a dielectric solvent under a steady and uniform electric field. Electro-hydrodynamically driven active particles based on ...
Teams of physicists worldwide have been trying to detect dark matter, an elusive type of matter that does not emit, absorb, or reflect light. Due to its lack of interactions with electromagnetic forces, this matter is very ...
Skyrmions are microscopic magnetic vortices that can form in certain materials. First detected in 2009, they are of interest to researchers because they could be harnessed for new forms of data storage. As theoreticians predicted, ...
