Experimental Soft Condensed Matter Group Harvard University, Prof. D. A. Weitz Cool Picture of the Moment

Highly anisotropic vorticity aligned flocs of carbon black particles. The log-like structures form in a transient response to low shear rate deformation of shear thickened dispersions.

Field of view: 1.35cm x 1cm; 50 micron gap plate-plate geometry.
