A new study published in Nature Nanotechnology has shown that long-range attraction between similarly charged particles in solution is possible. Remarkably, the group also discovered that, depending ...

Space charge effects, arising from the mutual electrostatic repulsion between charged particles in a beam, represent a critical limitation in the performance and stability of high-intensity ...

Using sound to get objects to float works well if a single particle is levitated but it causes multiple particles to collapse into a clump in mid-air. Physicists at the Institute of Science and ...

The study of nanoparticle interactions within colloidal suspensions has advanced considerably, laying the groundwork for both industrial applications and theoretical developments. At the heart of this ...

Zeta potential is a key indicator of the stability of colloidal dispersions and nanoparticle suspensions. It measures the electrical potential difference between the bulk of the liquid and the ...
