Open AccessCoherent X-rays reveal the influence of cage effects on ultrafast water dynamics
The dynamics of liquid water feature a variety of time scales, ranging from extremely fast ballistic-like thermal motion, to slower molecular diffusion and hydrogen-bond rearrangements. Here, we utilize cohere...

Fluid Structure Interaction and Radiation of Sound
Vibrating structures radiate noise. In fact, most sources of sound and noise, from loudspeakers to engines and vehicles, are really due to vibrating structures. A typical noise reducing measure is therefore to...
