Abstract:

An asymmetry of the two capillary wave peaks in the light scattered from a water surface subject to a temperature gradient parallel to the surface has been observed using a Fourier transform heterodyne technique. The sign and order of magnitude of the effect agree with linear fluctuating hydrodynamic theory.
