Physicists in the US have created a magnetic trap that can contain microscopic particles despite their Brownian motion. The trap, which is based on a magnetized, zigzag-shaped nanowire, could help ...

The seemingly random movement of Brownian motion just got a little more classical. Scientists have been able to image the ultrafast motions of a trapped particle, revealing the underlining ...

An international group of researchers from the EPFL (Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne), the University of Texas at Austin and the European Molecular Biology Laboratory in Heidelberg, Germany ...

Arkansas physicists have successfully developed a circuit capable of capturing graphene’s thermal motion and converting it into an electrical current. This lab curiousity only needs to be millions of ...

Researchers at the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU), Spain, have shed fresh light on the viscoelastic behaviour of human tears, demonstrating that real tears are much more complex than the ...

If you think making a little kid sit still for a camera is hard, try it with a protein in a water droplet. Such tiny objects jitter constantly from collisions with molecules of the water around them, ...

Let D be the Wiener sausage of width ε around two-sided Brownian motion. The components of two-dimensional reflected Brownian motion in D converge to one-dimensional Brownian motion and iterated ...

Brown noise is also known as Brownian noise because its change in sound signal from one moment to the next is random. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission.

“I did not believe that it was possible to study the Brownian motion with such a precision.” From a letter from Albert Einstein to Jean Perrin (1909). On 30 April 1905, Einstein completed his doctoral ...
