Searches for neutrinos from cosmic-ray interactions in the Sun using seven years of IceCube data

IceCube Collaboration, M. G. Aartsen, M. Ackermann +358

Cosmic-ray interactions with the solar atmosphere are expected to produce particle showers which in turn produce neutrinos from weak decays of mesons. These solar atmospheric neutr…

A quantitative analysis of the chain fountain

J. Pantaleone

The chain fountain is an entertaining, counter-intuitive phenomenon. When a chain flows up over the edge of a container and then falls to the ground below, it is observed that the…

Understanding how a falling ball chain can be speeded up by impact onto a surface

J. Pantaleone

When a falling ball chain strikes a surface, a tension is created that pulls the chain downward. This causes a downward acceleration that is larger than free-fall, which has been o…
