Dear list-readers,

Just a short e-mail to announce the greatly improved version 2 of the
Pendent_Drop plugin, which can be used to measure liquid surface
tensions from images of pendent or sessile drops. Works also for bubbles
rising from capillaries. It's described here

http://www.msc.univ-paris-diderot.fr/~daerr/misc/pendent_drop.html

also in the following open access software metapaper:

A. Daerr and A. Mogne, Pendent_Drop: An ImageJ Plugin to Measure the
Surface Tension from an Image of a Pendent Drop. Journal of Open
Research Software, 4: e3 (2016), DOI: 10.5334/jors.97
http://dx.doi.org/10.5334/jors.97

and in the detailed documentation:

Let me take advantage of this mail to correct a shameful oversight in
the paper's acknowledgment section: I would like to thank Curtis Rueden
for invaluable help on ImageJ2 plugin programming issues.

Happy measuring,
Adrian Daerr
