Liquids Under Negative Pressure: Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Research Workshop of Liquids Under Negative Pressure Budapest, Hungary 23-25 Februar

Book Overview

It is possible to "stretch" a liquid and, when suitably prepared, liquids are capable of sustaining substantial levels of tension, often for significant periods of time. These negative pressure states are metastable but can last for days - long enough for substantial experimental investigation. This volume is a review of recent and current research into the behaviour of liquids under negative pressure. Part I deals with the thermodynamics of stretched...
