Abstract:
Experimental kinetic data on soap froth cell growth in a random array of fixed pinning centers is reported. The scaling of our two-dimensional data is analyzed and compared with pinning-free growth. The obtained data agree fairly well with a proposed cell growth law. We also discuss the relationship between the pin concentration and the final cell size.
