Abstract
A modulated laser beam was used to generate capillary waves in a stron gly absorbing liquid. The amplitude of the wave can be enhanced by pla cing the liquid into a resonant cylindrical container. At the proper m odulation frequencies well pronounced resonances and standing waves we re observed. The surface tension and viscosity of the liquid were meas ured.
