Defying Gravity: Space Research Shatters Old Models of Chemical Mixing Dynamics


Experiments in weightlessness isolate the classic phenomenon of diffusion. For years, researchers have developed various models to describe a critical class of mixing effects, such as those occurring in the flow within a chemical reactor. However, experimental validation has significantly lagged be
