Water Tweezers: Generating Topological Structures with Gravity Water Waves

Researchers from China and Singapore have developed a novel technique to generate topological structures on water surfaces using gravity water waves. By exploiting the noise created by overlapping waves, the technique produces structures like wave vortices, skyrmions, and Möbius strips. This 'water tweezers' approach allows for manipulation of tiny objects, with potential applications in medicine, such as targeted drug delivery.
