Often the course of science doesn’t run smooth and happy accidents can lead to major findings and discoveries. From Michelson and Morley’s failure to detect the ether — a mysterious substance through which light was thought to propagate — arose Einstein’s theory of special relativity, for example. That’s a lesson that researchers at Princeton University also recently learned. When they set about to test a high-re...
Sharon Waters for the Office of Engineering Communications Jan. 29, 2021 2:30 p.m. It started as a failed experiment. Princeton Professor Marcus Hultmark and three Ph.D. students in his lab were testing — in water — a high-resolution temperature sensor that they had developed and used successfully for measurements in air. But then-graduate student Clayton Byers saw that the sensor was delivering backwards results: warm registered as cold and vice versa. Disappointment led to discovery as the team realized they were measuring fluid velocity, which has long proven much more difficult to mea...
