Abstract
The spatial distribution of the oscillatory flow in convection driven by chemical waves is visualized by a method that uses the differences in light transmisison caused by the tilt of the wave fronts. The image s show large flow waves with a wavelength on the order of ten chemical wavelengths traveling through the dish towards the center of the unde rlying spiral wave.
