This is how it works perfectly – more than just fun for children: soap bubbles in use

Date:

They are almost elusive and have been enchanting young and old for thousands of years: soap bubbles. But did you know that these magical structures are good for math, have been to space and are used in research, architecture and crime fighting? On the occasion of “World Soap Bubble Day” (October 5), Krone+ has taken a closer look at all this – and received tips for putting together the perfect ball.

Do you remember when you were little? For example, the beautiful Sunday market had stalls with lots of sweets, toys – and soap bubbles! But the glittering balls can be more than just fun: Area minimization is the key. Ah, you say? Precisely because we understand just as little about physics as the average Austrian, we ask the Associated Univ.-Prof. Dr. Ingrid Graz from the Johannes Kepler University Linz. The physicist gives bubble workshops for children, etc. in the context of the “School of Education”.
