Hexatic phase in a model of active biological tissues

Soft Matter, 2020, 16,3914-3920
DOI: 10.1039/D0SM00109K, Paper
Anshuman Pasupalak, Li Yan-Wei, Ran Ni, Massimo Pica Ciamarra
Epithelial cell tissues undergo a solid–liquid transition, e.g. as the motility of the cells increases. We find an intermediate hexatic phase in between the solid and the liquid ones, and the transition to follow the KTHNY scenario.

Marangoni puffs: dramatically enhanced dissolution of droplets with an entrapped bubble

Soft Matter, 2020, Advance Article
DOI: 10.1039/D0SM00093K, Paper
José M. Encarnación Escobar, Jaap Nieland, Arie van Houselt, Xuehua Zhang, Detlef Lohse
We present a curious effect observed during the dissolution process of water-immersed long-chain alcohol drops with an entrapped bubble. When the drop-water interface and the air bubble contact each other, a rapid cyclic motion that accelerates the drop's dissolution is found. We name this eye-catching phenomenon puffing.
