The University of Queensland pitch drop experiment, demonstrating the viscosity of bitumen. A pitch drop experiment is a long-term experiment which measures the flow of a piece of pitch over many years. "Pitch" is the name for any of a number of highly viscous liquids which appear solid, most commonly bitumen, also known as asphalt. At room ...
The pitch drop experiment taking place at University of Queensland is a long-term experiment which demonstrates the flow of a piece of pitch over many years.

This cheat sheet is the aftermath of hours upon hours of research on all of the teams in this year’s tournament field. I’ve listed each teams’ win and loss record, their against the spread totals, and
The University of Queensland pitch drop experiment has been ongoing since 1927. A long-term experiment is an experimental procedure that runs through a long period of time, in order to test a hypothesis or observe a phenomenon that takes place at an extremely slow rate.
Thus began his now famous pitch drop experiment, which, against all the odds, has been carefully preserved by UQ Physics to this day. [ 6 ] [ 7 ] [ 8 ] Under his leadership the physics department developed a useful service role, both in providing a scientific base for the Queensland hospital system's X-ray and radium services, and establishing ...
