A small team of researchers from Benemérita Universidad and Universidad de las Américas Puebla, in Mexico and Université de Poitiers, in France, has found a "triple Leidenfrost effect" in dissimilar drops in a hot pan. In their paper published in the journal Physical Review Letters, the group describes a type of "bouncing" they observed with different types of drops hovering over a hot surface.
