Researching Minor Inconveniences One Grant At A Time

The physics masterminds who brought you "undoing coffee rings," are back with another coffee ring-based research bonanza that's sure to cause a stir. If you thought you didn't care about how to get rid of them (hint: sponge), just wait until you learn about how they are formed!

But for those of you who are into coffee based residue, check out this film they created to describe the detailed mathematical processes that underlie one of life's slightly irritating phenomenon (here's some more). Over a thousand people already have.
