Vortex dynamics in cylindrical containers encapsulate a range of complex fluid behaviours driven by rotational motion. In these geometries, the interplay between centrifugal forces and viscous effects ...

The Space Climate Research Group at the University of Oulu, Finland has been studying the effects of energetic particle precipitation from space, more commonly known as the aurora borealis or Northern ...

University of Chicago physicists working in the nascent field of experimental vortex dynamics have, with unexpected help from a Sharpie marker, achieved the first measurements of an elusive but ...
