Rayleigh–Taylorn.

Brit.

/ˌreɪlɪˈteɪlə/, U.S.

/ˌreɪliˈteɪlər/

Origin: From proper names. Etymons: proper names Rayleigh, Taylor.

Etymology: < the title of J. W. Strutt, 3rd Baron Rayleigh (see Rayleigh n.¹) + the name of Sir Geoffrey Taylor (1886–1975), English mathematician, who extended Rayleigh's work on fluid dynamics.

Physics.

attributive. Used with reference to the instability of the interface between fluids of different densities, esp. as leading to convective motion; frequently in Rayleigh–Taylor instability. Cf. Rayleigh instability n. at Rayleigh n.¹ 7.
