ESROP Laser driven plume formation MPSD 2025

Laser-driven plume formation is a surprising and so far theoretically unpredicted phenomenon of Newtonian fluids. The group at the Max Planck Institue for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter (MPSD) have observed this behaviour in glycerol, a Newtonian fluid, whereby elastic, rubber-like responses in the material have been produced on timescales many orders of magnitude greater than previously predicted.
This undergraduate group aims to continue this work, studying and exploring this behaviour in water experimentally.
