    "abstract": "Laboratory studies reveal a deformational instability that leads to a drained\nregion (dry spot) in an initially flat liquid layer (with a free upper surface)\nheated uniformly from below. This long-wavelength instability supplants\nhexagonal convection cells as the primary instability in viscous liquid layers\nthat are sufficiently thin or are in microgravity. The instability occurs at a\ntemperature gradient 34% smaller than predicted by linear stability theory.\nNumerical simulations show a drained region qualitatively similar to that seen\nin the experiment.",
