Can one single mathematical framework describe the motion of a fluid and the individual particles within it? This question, first asked in 1900, now has a solution that could help us understand the ...

This week, physicists at the Division of Fluid Dynamics meeting in Minneapolis, Minnesota, exhibited their best experimental images in a “gallery of fluid motion” Air vortices often form around the ...

A dreamy new exhibition of images showcases the art of physics, from the beauty of a bubble rising to the flow of water around coral. The images, part of the American Physical Society's Division of ...
