17-year-old Pakistani kid shows how electric honeycomb forms
Muhammad Shaheer Niazi, a 17-year-old Pakistani kid, has provided the first photographic evidence of ion movement that forms an electric honeycomb. The phenomenon occurs when an oil layer placed in an electric field between a flat and pointy electrodes forms a honeycomb-like pattern. The Lahore high school student did the research for the International Young Physicists' Tournament.
