Nitrogen stars: Morphogenesis of a liquid drop

We report a study of a symmetry-breaking instability which occurs during the free evaporation of liquid nitrogen placed on a concave container initially at room temperature. The system evolves spontaneously from a highly disordered boiling state to one characterized by sequence of well-defined spati...
