Bowick, Luca Giomi, Homin Shin, and Creighton K. Thomas<br/>We investigate crystalline order on a two-dimensional paraboloid of revolution by assembling a single layer of millimeter-sized soap bubbles on the surface of a rotating liquid, thus extending the classic work of Bragg and Nye on planar soap bubble rafts. Topological constraints require crystalline ...<br/>[Phys. Rev. E 77, 021602] Published Wed Feb 27, 2008 Mark J. Bowick, Luca Giomi, Homin Shin, and Creighton K.

Shenoy<br/>As an alloy surface evolves under capillary forces, differing mobilities of the individual components can lead to kinetic alloy decomposition at the surface. In this paper, we address the relaxation of nanoscale sinusoidal ripples on alloy surfaces by considering the effects of both surface and bulk...<br/>[Phys. Rev.

The lifetimes of such bubbles are governed by the thinning dynamics of the hemispherical liquid film separating the bubble from bulk air.
