Fluid Mosaic Model01:19

Fluid Mosaic Model

13.6K
Scientists identified the plasma membrane in the 1890s and its principal chemical components (lipids and proteins) by 1915. The model for plasma membrane structure, proposed in 1935 by Hugh Davson and James Danielli, was the first model to be widely accepted in the scientific community. The model was based on the plasma membrane's "railroad track" appearance in early electron micrographs. Davson and Danielli theorized that the plasma membrane's structure resembled a sandwich...

The Fluid Mosaic Model

161.9K
The fluid mosaic model was first proposed as a visual representation of research observations. The model comprises the composition and dynamics of membranes and serves as a foundation for future membrane-related studies. The model depicts the structure of the plasma membrane with a variety of components, which include phospholipids, proteins, and carbohydrates. These integral molecules are loosely bound, defining the cell’s border and providing fluidity for optimal function.

Characteristics of Fluids

5.9K
When a force is applied parallel to the top surface of a solid, it resists the applied force due to the internal frictional forces between the layers of the solid known as shearing resistance. However, when the force is removed, the shearing forces restore the original shape of the solid. Other deformation forces also cause temporary changes in shape if the forces are not beyond a threshold magnitude. Solids tend to retain their shape, making the study of their rest and motion easier. Beyond...

Capillarity in Fluid01:19

Capillarity in Fluid

447
Capillarity describes the movement of liquid in small spaces without external forces acting on it. The capillarity is driven by surface tension and adhesive interactions between the liquid and surrounding solid surfaces. This effect is often seen in narrow tubes, porous materials, and fine particles.
Surface tension is crucial to capillarity. It results from cohesive forces between liquid molecules at the liquid-air boundary, forming a skin that resists external forces. When the capillary tube...

Composition of Body Fluids01:29

Composition of Body Fluids

Water functions as a solvent accommodating various solutes, which can be categorized under electrolytes and non-electrolytes. Non-electrolytes are usually held together by covalent bonds, restricting them from dissociating in solution, thereby leading to a lack of electrically charged components upon dissolving in water. They are predominantly organic molecules, such as glucose, creatinine, and urea. Electrolytes, on the other hand, are compounds that can break down into ions in water.

Viscosity of Fluid01:19

Viscosity of Fluid

783
Viscosity measures the resistance a fluid offers to flow and deformation. It results from internal friction between layers of fluid moving relative to one another. Dynamic viscosity, denoted by the Greek letter mu (μ), quantifies the force needed to move one fluid layer over another. For Newtonian fluids like water and air, the relationship between the shearing stress and the rate of shearing strain is linear, meaning their viscosity remains constant regardless of the applied stress.

Summary

Researchers discovered a new superfluid state in a three-component Bose mixture. This state halts coflow but allows dissipationless counterflows between component pairs, revealing unique quantum properties.

Area of Science:

  • Quantum physics

Background:

  • Superfluidity is a quantum mechanical phenomenon observed in certain fluids at very low temperatures.
  • Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) are a state of matter formed by cooling bosons to near absolute zero.
  • Optical lattices provide a powerful tool for simulating condensed matter systems with ultracold atoms.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the exotic quantum states of matter in multi-component Bose mixtures.
  • To explore the unique transport properties of a three-component Bose mixture in an optical lattice.
  • To identify and characterize a novel superfluid state with distinct superfluid transport behaviors.

Main Methods:

  • Microscopic experimental demonstration using a three-component Bose mixture.
