Not really sure... a google search returns a number of papers / patents with this phrase. It seems it is either the "core" of liquid formation in a gas-liquid mixture, or the tip of the liquid above a solid barrier.
 
But as I said, I'm not sure.

I had the second one in mind (in fact, I was going to drop a hint by offering assistance for this one) but the first one looks just as good.

Looks good, but was thinking of another one.

Hmm..., I have just realized that 'ed' is not a word and is therefore inadmissible for 70).

Well, I think the idea with these questions is that the answers should be common words, otherwise all sorts of answers are possible.

Nope, but here's a hint: the first is one word and the second is usually two words.
