The harmony of art and science: droplet holography

Little drops of water Little grains of sand Make the mighty ocean And the beauteous land….
so wrote Mrs. J.A. Carney in 1845. Artists like Martin Waugh have wonderful pictures of water drops (and ice crystals) exhibited as liquid sculptures (see, for instance,
http://www.liquidsculpture.com/fine_art/). A picture, however, is only two-dimensional. At the University of Dayton (UD), researchers are looking into the detailed nature of these little drops, using holography to recreate their exact three-dimensional shape in order to understand how exactly they deform when they impact fast moving surfaces such as the windshields of aircraft traveling through rain.
