His namesake number quantifies whether heat transfer occurs mainly through conduction or convection.
This scientist names a phenomenon in which the stagnation temperature depends only on Mach number and adiabatic index. This scientist is the first alphabetical namesake of a phenomenon that forms characteristic "fingers" when the Atwood number is close to zero. In Lagrangian mechanics, the force of friction is given by the negative velocity gradient of this scientist's namesake dissipation function. This scientist neglected the effects of viscosity and surface tension in deriving a model of (*) bubble cavitation generalized by Plesset. The interface between two fluids of different densities is subject to an instability named for this scientist and Taylor. His namesake number quantifies whether heat transfer occurs mainly through conduction or convection. For 10 points, identify this scientist whose namesake scattering makes the sky appear blue.
