Shock-induced aerobreakup of parallel-arranged droplets Altough many studies have focused on the aerobreakup of an isolated droplet, the coupling dynamics of multiple droplets remain less understood. By investigating the aerobreakup of parallel-arranged dr...

New high-speed videos show that side-by-side droplets in a fast airflow fragment in predictable ways: they form sacs, stretch into threads, or even merge depending on their spacing.
