The drops of fluid ejected by the jet form aerosols that collect above surfaces of everything from the ocean to a glass of sparkling wine. Because these aerosols play a critical role in many disciplines, including atmospheric science, understanding the conditions under which they form has been a goal of researchers for decades. via Math describes how bubbles pop.
