Abstract A granular gas composed of monodisperse spherical particles was studied in microgravity experiments in a drop tower. Translations and rotations of the particles were extracted from optical video data. Equipartition is violated, the rotationa

Abstract Granular gases are fascinating non-equilibrium systems with interesting features such as spontaneous clustering and non-Gaussian velocity distributions. Mixtures of different components represent a much more natural composition than monodisp

Abstract Granular multiparticle ensembles are of interest from fundamental statistical viewpoints as well as for the understanding of collective processes in industry and in nature. Extraction of physical data from optical observations of three-dimen

Liquid-crystal columns were prepared and observed under microgravity aboard suborbital TEXUS rocket flights. The microgravity phase of each flight lasted for approximately six minutes. We tested structures in different liquid-crystalline mesophases.

We review the interactions and dynamics of topological defects in liquid crystals (LCs) in quasi-two-dimensional (2D) geometries. Such spatial restrictions can be realized in thin freely suspended smectic C films, in thin sandwich cells filled with n

Soft smooth particles in silo discharge show peculiar characteristics, including, for example, non-permanent clogging and intermittent flow. This paper describes a study of soft, low-frictional hydrogel spheres in a quasi-2D silo. We enforce a more c

We study the annihilation of topological defect pairs in the quasi-two-dimensional geometry of freely suspended smectic films. This elementary process is at the basis of all models describing the statistics of complex defect patterns. We prepare pair

We study the passage of active and passive granular particles through a bottleneck under gravitational bias. The grains are pharmaceutical capsules with spherocylindrical shapes on a vibrating table. The vibrating ground plate is slightly tilted in o

Freely suspended smectic films with in-plane temperature inhomogeneities can exhibit remarkable thermocapillary (Marangoni) effects. The temperature dependence of the surface tension $\sigma (T)$ promotes flow in the film plane, convection roll patte

Smectic liquid crystals are fluids, and in most rheological situations they behave as such. Nevertheless, when thin freely floating films of smectic A or smectic C materials are compressed quickly in-plane, they resist such stress by buckling similar
