Français : Chute d'une goutte de mercure sur une plaque de verre, dessinée d'après ses photos par A. M. Worthington. Dans son ouvrage de 1895, Worthington explique :
CHUTE D’UNE GOUTTE DE MERCURE SUR UN PLAN DE VERRE (description du phénomène parA. M. Worthington) Mai 1894
On remarque d’abord que très peu de temps après l'impact de la goutte de mercure sur le plan de verre, de minuscules rayons sont projetés dans toutes les directions sur ce plan. Ces rayons s’étalent ensuite ou se réunissent, jusqu'à ce que, comme dans la figure 8 :
…de manière à joindre les rayons par paires, et migre pour former l'anneau à 12 lobes de la figure 16. Ensuite, l'ensemble se contracte, mais plus rapidement entre les lobes, le liquide étant alors poussé dans douze bras en direction du centre. Sur la figure 21 :
Cette colonne centrale retombe alors au milieu du cercle des gouttes satellites qui, on le comprendra, peut dans certains cas être de nouveau entouré par un second cercle de gouttelettes encore plus petites et plus nombreuses qui se séparent des extrémités des rayons de la fig. 9 (voir plus haut)
