14. The dimensions of the wedge have to be sufficiently large compared to the size of the droplet to avoid pinning of the contact line at the upper edges of me groove walls.

21. Note that the denominator is quadratic in ε to leading order.
22. In this case, we have ω = O sin ε, which yields the Rayleigh result λ* = πD, where D = 2R is the diameter of a cylinder with the same curvature.
