โฆ Synopsis
Spectra of fluctuations in the total intensity of laser light deflected by supercooled water show that even under carefully controlled conditions large samples give convection when cooled below -0%. This is in agreement with the Rayleigh versus Prandtl number relation for supercooled water. Localisation of the temperatures at which transitions in thermal convection occur allows an estimate of the temperature at which the samples should become fully turbulent. Since the samples always freeze before that point is reached and a turbulent situation is never observed, one is led to the surmise that turbulence drives the transition out of the metastable state.
