Liquid water is densest, essentially 1. 00 g / cm³, at 4 ° C and becomes less dense as the water molecules begin to form the hexagonal crystals of ice as the freezing point is reached.

Liquid crystals do not emit light directly.

Liquid crystals were first developed in 1888.

* Timothy J. Sluckin History of Liquid Crystals, a presentation and extracts from the book Crystals that Flow: Classic papers from the history of liquid crystals.

Liquid crystals can be divided into thermotropic, lyotropic and metallotropic phases.

Liquid crystals find wide use in liquid crystal displays, which rely on the optical properties of certain liquid crystalline substances in the presence or absence of an electric field.

Liquid crystals have been used in such paints, such as in the thermometer strips and tapes used in aquaria.

* Liquid crystals ( e. g., ) that rotate polarized light either 0 degrees or 90 degrees depending on the applied electric field ;

Liquid crystals are commonly used in displays and shutter glasses.

Liquid crystals account for the bulk of Merck's profits at present.

Liquid crystals, another category of soft matter, exhibit a responsivity to electric fields that make them very important as materials in display devices ( LCDs ).

Liquid crystals encompass a wide range of ( typically ) rod-shaped polymers that naturally form into thin layers, as opposed to the more random alignment of a normal liquid.

Liquid crystals are quite sensitive, and even small amounts of leaked field will cause some level of switching to occur.

* Liquid crystals, when they are in a thermotropic state, can change light transmission properties in response to temperature.

Liquid crystals are used in precision applications, as their responses can be engineered to accurate temperatures, but their color range is limited by their principle of operation.

Liquid crystals used in dyes and inks often come microencapsulated, in the form of suspension.

Liquid crystals are used in applications where the color change has to be accurately defined.

Liquid or dissolved samples are typically used with flame atomizers.

Liquid solutions are injected in a vaporization chamber towards injectors ( typically car injectors ).

Occasional large gigs are staged at Murrayfield and Meadowbank, with mid-sized events at venues such as the Corn Exchange, HMV Picture House, the Liquid Rooms, and the Bongo Club.

Liquid anaesthetics are vapourized in the machine.

Liquid crystal tunable filters are used as electrooptical devices, e. g., in hyperspectral imaging.

Liquid crystal color transitions are used on many aquarium and pool thermometers as well as on thermometers for infants or baths.

Liquid column gauges consist of a vertical column of liquid in a tube that has ends which are exposed to different pressures.

Liquid hydrocarbon fuels are the most commonly used forms of energy storage for use in transportation, but because the byproducts of the reaction that utilizes these liquid fuels ' energy ( combustion ) produce greenhouse gases other energy carriers like hydrogen can be used to avoid production of greenhouse gases.

Liquid propellants generally have densities similar to water ( with the notable exceptions of liquid hydrogen and liquid methane ), and these types are able to use lightweight, low pressure tanks and typically run high-performance turbopumps to force the propellant into the combustion chamber.

Liquid nitrogen boils at 77 K, facilitating many experiments and applications that are less practical at lower temperatures.

Liquid crystal devices are electro-optical phase modulators if no polarizers are used.

Liquid goods are transported by road in tank trucks ( AE ) or tanker lorries ( BE ) ( also road-tankers ) or special tankcontainers for intermodal transport.

Liquid ingredients are generally measured by volume worldwide.

Unc Nunkie and Dr. Pipt's wife are also the sufferers of the consequences of another of the Doctor's inventions, the Liquid of Petrifaction, which turns them into solid marble statues.

Liquid nitrogen boils at 77 K, facilitating many experiments and applications that are less practical at lower temperatures.

Liquid water was prevalent, and deep oceanic basins are known to have existed by the presence of banded iron formations, chert beds, chemical sediments and pillow basalts.

Both Liquid Architecture and What Is Music are annual festivals of modern music and sound art.

Among the artists represented in the collection are, from Italy, De Chirico ( The Red Tower, The Nostalgia of the Poet ) and Severini ( Sea Dancer ); from France, Braque ( The Clarinet ), Duchamp ( Sad Young Man on a Train ), Léger ( Study of a Nude ), Picabia ( Very Rare Picture on Earth ); from Spain, Dalí ( Birth of Liquid Desires ), Miró ( Seated Woman II ) and Picasso ( The Poet, On the Beach ); from other European countries, Brâncuşi ( including a sculpture from the Bird in Space series ), Max Ernst ( The Kiss, Attirement of the Bride ), Giacometti ( Woman with Her Throat Cut, Woman Walking ), Gorky ( Untitled ), Kandinsky ( Landscape with Red Spots, No. 2, White Cross ), Klee ( Magic Garden ), Magritte ( Empire of Light ) and Mondrian ( Composition No. 1 with Grey and Red 1938, Composition with Red 1939 ); and from the US, Calder ( Arc of Petals ) and Pollock ( The Moon Woman, Alchemy ).

Closely related concepts are the post-industrial society ( Daniel Bell ), post-fordism, post-modern society, knowledge society, Telematic Society, Information Revolution, Liquid modernity, and network society ( Manuel Castells ).

Both of these technologies are largely obsolete, having been increasingly replaced since the 1990s by the Liquid Crystal Display ( LCD ).

Liquid nitrogen, liquid helium, and dry ice are used as coolants in extreme cases, such as record-setting attempts or one-off experiments rather than cooling an everyday system.

Important examples of where Fermi liquid theory has been successfully applied are most notably electrons in most metals and Liquid He-3.

Some of those artists include Dubblestandart from Vienna, Austria ( who recorded the album " Return from Planet Dub " in collaboration with, and performs live with, Lee Scratch Perry ), Liquid Stranger from Sweden, New York City artists including Ticklah, also known as Victor Axelrod, Victor Rice, Easy Star All-Stars, Dub Trio ( who have recorded and performed live with Mike Patton, and are currently touring as the backing band for Matisyahu ), Subatomic Sound System ( who have remixed material by Lee Scratch Perry and Ari Up ), Dub is a Weapon, King Django, Boom One Sound System, Dr. Israel, Giant Panda Guerilla Dub Squad from Rochester, NY, Heavyweight Dub Champion from San Francisco and Colorado, Ott from the UK who has released several influential albums through Twisted Records, Future Pigeon from Los Angeles, German artists like Disrupt and Rootah from the Jahtari label, and Twilight Circus from the Netherlands.
