33. The fingers of the outer (less viscous) fluid penetrating toward the cell center exhibit competition. Some of them, thus, stop at larger radial distances than others. This explains the apparent bifurcation of some of the outgoing fingers, which should not be mistaken for a tip-splitting instability of the outward fingers.

35. Note that this term can be constructed from the case with gravity discussed in, now for a gravity that grows linearly with x.
