"Scientists have been able to understand the unusual phenomenon of antibubbles - the rare, reverse form of normal bubbles - by forming them in beer.

 

Typical bubbles are thin films of liquid enclosing pockets of air, but antibubbles are a thin film of air which encloses pockets of liquid.

 

Belgian researchers said on Monday they could make antibubbles appear in a many different liquids - not just alcohol.

 

Dr Stephane Dorbolo details his team's work in the New Journal of Physics."

also, what is the point in this, it seems totaly pointless, why would anyone need or want to know about this... or is it just a random thing which some scientist noticed and is getting famous for. it has, seemingly, no practical use.

Yeah, I also failed to see why it "perplexed" scientist. What is so mystical about anti-bubbles?
