The breakup of a liquid jet at microgravityThe parameter ranges in which a viscous liquid jet emanating into a viscous gas will breakup in three different modes are calculated. The three modes of jet breakup are: Rayleigh mode of capillary pinching, Taylor mode of atomization, and the absolute instability mode. The apparatus designed for elucidating these three different modes of instability is described. Some preliminary results of the ongoing ground based experiments will be reported.
