Tiny atoms and molecules are constantly bombarding each other all around us. While we regularly measure the large-scale effects of these interactions, measuring the effect of each individual collision is far more difficult. But now, researchers have managed to measure how tiny gas particles affect a single silica particle in the lab.
In their new study, published in Physical Review Letters, the team describes how they detected the momentum transfers of individual collisions of gas particles with a nanoparticle levitated in laser light.

How the aftermath of negotiations turns 'winners' into 'losers,' and vice versa
At its best, negotiation is the art of mutual value creation. But once created, that value must be capitalized upon in the post-negotiation environment. That means the formal end of negotiations is often only the end of the beginning. Time will tell whether the gains and losses s
