Abstract

The predicted transition from a traveling wave to a modulated traveling wave with increasing Rayleigh number was recently observed in an experiment on a water-ethanol mixture heated from below. Close to the codimension-two bifurcation the particle trajectories in such a modulated wave are predicted to be chaotic.
