Some metals are in liquid form, the prime example being mercury. But there are also enormous quantities of liquid metal in the Earth's core, where temperatures are so high that part of the iron is ...

Researchers at UNSW have developed a new type of motor that spins, not with rigid components, but with a droplet of liquid ...

The study, published January 13 in Physical Review Letters, replaces the metal or plastic cogs of conventional gears with controlled flows of liquid. In their experiments, ...

Fill a narrow glass capillary tube with water, then turn it horizontal. Conventional wisdom says that the water will remain inside the tube. But a group of scientists in Spain and the UK has found ...

You can make a gravity-defying liquid just by mixing a molecule called polyethylene oxide and water. The BBC show Quite Interesting explained how it works. The mixture even glows under UV light.

Researchers at UNSW have developed a new type of motor that generates rotation through the internal flow of a droplet of ...
