Sliding water droplets corrode Teflon-coated metal – Physics World
1+ week, 6+ day ago (156+ words) Water droplets sliding across solid surfaces can acquire electric potentials of thousands of volts and thereby corrode non-conductive surfaces on metals when they discharge. That is the conclusion of researchers in Germany who say that the poorly-understood phenomenon warrants further…...
Quantum effects in chemical reactions – Physics World
3+ week, 5+ day ago (272+ words) New research shows that chemical reactions in an ultracold quantum gas can generate entanglement and transfer phase information from atoms to molecules In order to learn more about this phenomenon, a team of researchers from the University of Chicago studied…...
