Generation and trajectory control of water drops able to bounce on a flat water surface

Under some conditions, a water droplet can bounce on a flat water surface. This paper contains a qualitative analysis of the bouncing phenomenon that leads to try to obtain drops with a nearly tangential incidence, the smallest radius and the highest velocity possible. We describe the experimental s...
