5. In this problem, the cut-off length is at least on the order of a lipid molecule width (∼ 1 nm). It may increase to much larger values near the main transition temperature, because of the dynamic clustering of lipids into gel-like domains. See: O.G. Mouritsen, K. Jorgensen, BioEssays 14, 129 (1992) and references therein.

18. We estimated this error from tests with a particle which was "frozen" inside a water-agarose gel, and moved to different pre-determined positions with a motorized stage.
19. Here z is the altitude of the observation plane in a frame linked to the cuvette. In practice, we measure h, the altitude of the cuvette in the laboratory frame. vs is equal to ndh/dt, where n is the refractive index of water (≅ 1.34). See: G.
