Brownian motion refers to a phenomenon in which some quantity is constantly undergoing small but random fluctuations.
It is also called Brownian movement or pedesis (Greek word meaning leaping).
When particles are suspended in a fluid (a gas or a liquid), they undergo random motion resulting from their collisions with the molecules of the fluid which are moving very fast.
This random movement is what is called Brownian motion, named after Robert Brown, the Scottish botanist who was the first to study such movements.
