4 Apr 2005 | Subject: | Pattern Formation and Solitons | nlin.PS | Abstract: | Pattern formation on the free surface of a magnetic fluid subjected to a magnetic field is investigated experimentally. By tilting the magnetic field the symmetry can be broken in a controllable manner. When increasing the amplitude of the tilted field, the flat surface gives way to liquid ridges. A further increase results in a hysteretic transition to a pattern of stretched hexagons. The instabilities are detected by means of a linear array of magnetic hall sensors and compared with theoretical predictions. | Source: | arXiv, nlin.PS/0504008 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
