Abstract
Flow visualization, heat-transprot measurements, and the light-intensity profile as a function of time have been used to study nonlinear propagating waves in ethanol-water mixtures heated from below. The experimental results reveal the main features of the travelling waves predicted by recent theory.Keywords
