M&M sweets pack together more densely than perfect spheres when randomly jumbled in a container, scientists say. Same-sized spheres were previously thought to have the highest "packing fraction" - the ...

For a given set M of positive integers, a well-known problem of Motzkin asked to determine the maximal asymptotic density of M-sets, denoted by μ(M), where an M-set is a set of non-negative integers ...

Lab tests have proved that bubbles can sink floating objects. The findings add weight to suggestions that methane bubbles escaping from methane reserves in the seabed might have been to blame for ...
