Plasmakristall‐4 Experiment: 10 Years of Operation in Orbit

Contributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plasmakristall‐4 (PK‐4) is a microgravity complex plasma laboratory operated for 10 years on board the International Space Station. Its main purpose is the particle‐resolved investigation of generic condensed matter phenomena using strongly coupled suspensions of microparticles immersed in low‐pressure gas‐discharge plasmas.

Sheath‐assisted microfluidics for elasto‐inertial manipulation of micro/nanoparticles: From theory to biomedical applications

Droplet, EarlyView.
This review examines sheath‐assisted elasto‐inertial microfluidics, where viscoelastic and inertial forces synergize to manipulate particles. It analyzes the underlying mechanisms, system designs, and biomedical applications, proposing future research to advance high‐precision technologies.

Droplet friction on superhydrophobic surfaces

Droplet, EarlyView.
By developing an experimental setup that simultaneously measures the friction force, macroscopic shape profile, and the macro‐ and microscopic contact line dynamics of a laterally sliding droplet, this study establishes an analytical model that predicts droplet friction on pillared superhydrophobic surfaces relying only on surface geometrical ...

Recent advances in boosting interfacial bubble dynamics with external fields

Droplet, EarlyView.
External physical fields, including acoustic, magnetic, thermal, mechanical, and optical stimuli, accelerate the entire bubble‐dynamics sequence of nucleation, growth, and detachment. Abstract The efficiency of industrial electrocatalytic reactions depends not only on generating gaseous products but also on their detachment from the catalyst surface ...
