We measured the thermophysical properties of molten gallium oxide (Ga2O3) in a contamination-free and microgravity environment by using the electrostatic levitation furnace in the International Space Station. The d...
To accurately measure the surface tension of liquid titanium free of contamination from chemical reaction with the supporting materials and dissolution of atmospheric oxygen, the measurement was performed by using electromagnetic levitation (EML) ...

Liquid densities of three lanthanoid sesquioxides (Tm2O3, Yb2O3, and Lu2O3), whose melting temperatures are above 2400 °C, were measured using an electrostatic levitation furnace onboard the International Space Station (ISS). Each sample was posit...
Co-Cr-Mo (CCM) alloys, which are used in biomedical implants, are currently produced by additive manufacturing, for which accurate modeling of the process is required to attain the desired thermophysical properties of the melts. For the purpose of...
