摘要
The turbulent motion of capillary surface waves is studied using laser-induced fluorescence. A blue laser is focused onto the surface of a solution of fluorescein in water contained in a vertically shaken vessel. The movement of the resulting green spot is followed by a position-sensitive detector. The scaling behavior and cross-over phenomenon for the surface-height-frequency spectrum observed provide direct support to the weak turbulence theory of surface waves.
