Ferrofluid
[original media no longer available] The motion of ferrofluids in magnetic fields is always mesmerizing. Here a ferrofluid has been submerged in a clear alcohol-based solution in a shallow dish while Keep reading
High-Speed Ferrofluid
High-speed video captures the behavior of a ferrofluid trapped between two magnets. Ferrofluids contain tiny ferromagnetic particles suspended in a carrier fluid like oil or water. The distinctive peaks and Keep reading
Wild Ferrofluid Shapes
In this fluid experiment, a ferrofluid–typically a liquid with a suspension of ferric particles–is exposed to rotating magnetic fields, which results in some wild shapes. #
