New Journey to the Heart of a Champagne Bubble (French Edition) by Gérard Liger-Belair, Guillaume Polidori

New Journey to the Heart of a Champagne Bubble is a fascinating work that immerses the reader in the effervescent universe of champagne. Written by two renowned scientists, Gérard Liger-Belair and Guillaume Polidori, this book offers a unique approach combining science and art to better understand the secrets of champagne bubbles.

The authors have developed sophisticated imaging techniques, capturing unprecedented and spectacular images of the phenomena occurring inside a simple champagne flute. These bubbles are not just visually pleasing elements; they reveal complex scientific processes that find analogies in much larger phenomena, such as those observed in the atmosphere, the ocean, or even in the cosmos.

The book highlights the connection between these micro-events and the great mysteries of fluid physics. This scientific immersion into the world of champagne bubbles is an invitation to see this truly iconic wine in a new light. Through illustrations and clear descriptions, the authors unveil the mechanisms behind the formation and behavior of bubbles, making this astonishing science accessible.

Gérard Liger-Belair, a physics professor at the University of Reims-Champagne-Ardenne, is a recognized specialist in the bubble formation processes in sparkling wines. Author of several books on the subject, including Champagne. Effervescence, he shares his passion for sparkling wines with rigorous scientific respect. As for Guillaume Polidori, a professor of fluid mechanics at the same university, he brings his expertise in flow visualization and thermal transfers, offering a complementary perspective to that of Liger-Belair.

In addition to being a tribute to the beauty of champagne, this work addresses both curious enthusiasts and scientists. It offers a new way to appreciate this drink, combining the pleasure of tasting with a better understanding of its internal mechanisms. A true journey where science and passion for champagne meet.
