## Abstract A monolayer on a water surface is affected by the action of wind, and retracts until the wind drag is counter‐balanced by the opposing surface pressure gradient. This effect has been used to determine the shearing stress on water at low wind speeds. Estimates of the drag coefficient hav
A new crystalline polymorph of Bombyx mori silk, which forms at the air-water interface, has been characterized. A previous study found this structure to be trigonal, and to be distinctly different than the two previously observed silk crystal structures, silk I and silk II. This new structure was n
