Dynamics of fluctuations below a stationary bifurcation to electroconvection in the planar nematic liquid crystal N4

Xin-liang Qiu, Guenter Ahlers

We fitted $C(\mathbf{k},\tau ,\epsilon )\propto exp[-\sigma (\mathbf{k},\epsilon )\tau ]$ to time-correlation functions $C(\mathbf{k},\tau ,\epsilon )$ of structure factors $S(\mathbf{k},t,\epsilon )$ of shadowgraph images of fluctuations…
