Granular Jets at Chicago and Twente
"Dive into the Physics of Splashing"
A movie by NPR's Science Friday (check out their website
here)
Everybody knows that when a stone is dropped in water, a
jet of water shoots up. Physicists Detlef Lohse, from the University of
Twente in The Netherlands, and Heinrich Jaeger, of The University of Chicago,
are combining math, theory and super high-speed videos to try to figure
out the basic physics underlying the jet.
