Curious about what makes Halloween chocolate so creamy and smooth? In 2006, food scientist Erich Windhab outlined the delectable physics behind cocoa-based desserts. #physics #halloween 🎃👻🍫
What makes for smooth, creamy chocolate?
Chocolatiers adjust properties of chocolate’s ingredients to confect a treat that feels as good as it tastes.

Congrats to Zeeshan on the publication of this paper in JoT! 🌀 Zeeshan showed that the physical thickness of a portion of the turbulent/non-turbulent interface is well described by a combination of the Kolmogorov and Taylor scales. doi.org/10.1080/1468...
On the physical dimension of the turbulent sublayer at the turbulent/non-turbulent interface
The turbulent/non-turbulent interface (TNTI) is a thin fluid layer that separates rotational and irrotational flows, playing a critical role in the multi-scale process of entrainment. This work exa...
