“…When two antisymmetric effects, like the ones stated above, act in opposite directions, the interface deformations associated to each one of the parameters will also be opposite, so that the interface neck will be in the upper or in lower half of the liquid column depending on the relative importance of the parameters involved. Although this problem was first analyzed, more than a decade ago, both numerically and experimentally [20,21], and the main features of the breaking process were outlined, no explanation on the different effects involved in the development of instabilities was given in these papers. Refined asymptotic analysis shows that for fixed values of the parameters under consideration (unequal disks and axial gravity), their relative importance depend on the disks separation.…”
