Abstract
Experiments were conducted to test the linear theory of internal gravity waves produced in a stably stratified liquid by the steady vertical motion of a sphere. The measurements of the phase configuration in a medium whose density increased linearly with depth were made by means of a Toepler-schlieren system. The agreement between observation and prediction was found to be good.
