Scientific paper

The multi-roll-structure (MRS) with convection rolls, all with the same sense of rotation and axes perpendicular to the applied temperature gradient appears in thin layers driven by thermocapillarity prior to time dependent states. Detailed experimental and numerical results are reported. The MRS in large Prandtl-number fluids is dominated by thermocapillarity and separates from the buoyancy driven bulk flow for deep layers. We prepare a microgravity experiment MAGIA to study thermocapillary flow structures without coupling to buoyancy in a 20.0 mm wide annular layer with free surface of variable depth heated by the outer wall and cooled at the inside
