Bifurcation to worms in electroconvection.

The primary bifurcation to electroconvection of the liquid crystal 4-ethyl-2-fluoro-4'-[2-(trans-4-pentylcyclohexyl)ethyl]-biphenyl (I52) with planar alignment leads to localized structures of convection rolls known as "worms" when the conductivity of the fluid is relatively small. Worms coexist with the conduction state. They have a unique small width in the direction perpendicular to the dire...
