Location:

Address:

Mitchell Institute for Fundamental Physics & Astronomy

College Station, Texas 77843

Event Details

Two undergraduate students (Cameron Lozano and Michael Van Meter)

 will demonstrate live diamagnetic levitation of micron size (femtoliter volume) femtodroplets. We will show manipulation of levitating charged and neutral femtodroplets and femtocrystals with femtonewton resolution and interaction between them. The later was topic of recent studies by several experimental groups. See e.g

https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-022-02822-5?WT.ec_id=NATURE-20220908&utm_source=nature_etoc&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=20220908&sap-outbound-id=F0FE7523AD7226B8C8FF2995A2D906536682DC34

We will discuss how our approach can be used in vacuum and low temperatures.

Volunteers will have possibility to try to levitate femtodroplets under the guidance of Cameron and Michael.
