Abstract

We report measurement of azimuthal velocity as a function of radius near the boundary between a liquid annulus and (a) a rigid freely floating cylinder and (b) an air core contained in a rapidly rotating horizontal cylindrical container. Case (a) agrees with previous theoretical calculations and verifies the method. Case (b) demonstrates (1) that the interface can support stress and (2) that there is a distinct difference in the scale of radial variation in the bulk liquid from that observed in case (a).
