Transient hexagonal structures in sheared emulsions of isotropic inclusions on smectic bubbles in microgravity conditions
Abstract We describe the collective behavior of isotropic droplets dispersed over a spherical smectic bubble, observed under microgravity conditions on the International Space Station (ISS). We find that droplets can form two-dimensional hexagonal structures changing with time. Our analysis indicate...
