Scientific paper

We discuss the difference between cohesive and non-cohesive granular media in
the context of a recent report of "dry quicksand." Weak low density states with
properties like dry quicksand are readily formed in common household powders.
In contrast, such states cannot be formed in cohesionless granular media such
as ordinary sand.
