Magnetic soap films

This repository contains the 4k videos recorded in experiments studying soap films and magnetic soap films relevant to the paper The stability of magnetic soap films.

The filename and title slide of each video describes the film composition and the experimental configuration. Some examples are given to clarify what the filenames mean:

• solA_soap_2.mp4 - a soap film created from solution A. The '2' is an arbitrary counter for films of the same type in the same configuration.
• solA_ferro_Y066_3.mp4 - a magnetic soap film created from solution A with a mass fraction of ferrofluid Y = 0.066 without a magnetic field applied.
• solA_magnet_Y020_5.mp4 - a magnetic soap film created from solution A with a mass fraction of ferrofluid Y = 0.020 with a magnetic field applied.

In the title slides of each video, \(H_{\mathrm{a}} \neq 0\) indicates that a magnetic field is applied and \(H_{\mathrm{a}} = 0\) indicates that a magnetic field is not applied. Please refer to the The stability of magnetic soap films for additional details.
