Critical slowing down near the smectic-A-hexatic-B transition
2014 We have performed high-resolution heat-capacity and thermal-conductivity investigations on the same sample in the vicinity of the smectic-A-hexatic-B transition of n-propyl-4’-nheptyloxybiphenyl-4-carboxylate (370BC). The thermal diffusivity shows a pronounced drop near the transition. This clearly demonstrates and confirms the critical slowing down of the thermal fluctuations observed in ...
متن کاملModel of convective Taylor columns in rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection.
Observations, and laboratory and numerical studies, of fluid flows with strong rotation and thermal forcing often show long-lived convective Taylor columns (CTCs) which carry a large portion of the vertical heat and mass fluxes. However, owing to experimental and numerical challenges, these structures remain poorly understood. Here we present a nonlinear, analytical multiscale model of CTCs in ...
متن کاملAmplitude equations for Rayleigh-Bénard convective rolls far from threshold.
An extension of the amplitude method is proposed. An iterative algorithm is developed to build an amplitude equation model that is shown to provide precise quantitative results even far from the linear instability threshold. The method is applied to the study of stationary Rayleigh-Bénard thermoconvective rolls in the nonlinear regime. In particular, the generation of second and third spatial h...

متن کاملThe Effects of Thermal Noise in a Rayleigh-Benard Cell Near Its First Convective Instability
In recent experiments on the initial stages of pattern formation in a Rayleigh Benard convection cell, Meyer e t al. I1) observed very irregular patterns. In these experiments, the fluid was subjected to a heat current that varied either linearly or periodically in time from below to above the onset of the first instability. If the side wall of the cylindrical cell was made of a material with a...
