带电的液滴在雷雨云中产生，也在喷墨印刷和电喷雾电离等技术应用中产生，但当充电超过瑞利极限时，它们就会变得不稳定。在这里，我们通过高速显微镜检查悬浮液滴来记录分解过程的动力学。这些图像可能有助于解释实验和理论物理学中最古老的未解决问题之一。
Electrified droplets are generated in thunderstorm clouds, as well as in technological applications such as ink-jet printing and electrospray ionization, but they become unstable when charged beyond the Rayleigh limit. Here we record the dynamics of the disintegration process by examining levitated droplets under high-speed microscopy. These images may help to explain one of the oldest unsolved problems in experimental and theoretical physics.
