Bursting bubble in a viscoplastic medium

Centaurus A : multiple outbursts or bursting bubble ?

We present new radio observations of the brighter region of the northern lobe (the Northern Middle Lobe, NML) of Centaurus A obtained at 20 cm with the Australia Telescope Compact Array. The angular resolutions are ∼50 and ∼130 arcsec, therefore much higher than for the previously available radio images of this region. The most interesting feature detected in our images is a large-scale jet tha...

The Bursting of the Pedigree Bubble

Bursting the bubble on bacterial biofilms: a flow cell methodology

The flow cell biofilm system is an important and widely used tool for the in vitro cultivation and evaluation of bacterial biofilms under hydrodynamic conditions of flow. This paper provides an introduction to the background and use of such systems, accompanied by a detailed guide to the assembly of the apparatus including the description of new modifications which enhance its performance. As s...

Nanoemulsions obtained via bubble-bursting at a compound interface

Bursting of bubbles at an air/liquid interface is a familiar occurrence relevant to foam stability, cell cultures in bioreactors and ocean–atmosphere mass transfer. In the latter case, bubble-bursting leads to the dispersal of sea-water aerosols in the surrounding air. Here we show that bubbles bursting at a compound air/oil/water-with-surfactant interface can disperse submicrometre oil droplet...

Anemia management in chronic kidney disease: bursting the hemoglobin bubble.

Until the approval of recombinant erythropoietin therapy in 1989, many patients receiving dialysis were severely anemic and needed transfusions to maintain a hemoglobin level greater than 70 g/L. Recombinant erythropoietin was greeted as a panacea for anemia in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and was approved for use with considerable fanfare, relatively little clinical trial data, and few reserva...
