Abstract

We have obtained some results about the stability of cellular systems in the Taylor problem, and we have shown some important differences between this problem and that of Rayleigh-Benard. The stability of the stationary cells against transversal phase disturbances is a crucial property of the Taylor-Couette instability. It is directly related to the absence of rotationnal invariance. It should be possible to prove it by using more general arguments.
