摘要
We present the first quantitative study of the <<tears of wine>> phenomenon. The ethanol-water film presents a self-similar profile of parabolic shape and obeys a diffusivelike wetting law. Both the fluid velocity and the surface tension gradient along the film are deduced. In addition, we relate the existence of a star instability at the edge of the reservoir and a fingering instability at the front of the film.
