dc.descriptionThe formation of textured patterns has been predicted to occur in two stages. The first is an early time, domain-forming stage with dynamics characterized by a disorder function $\barδ(β) \sim t^{-σ_{E}}$, with $σ_{E} = {1/2}β$; this decay is universal. Coarsening of domains occurs in the second stage, in which $\barδ(β) \sim t^{-σ_{L}}$, where $σ_{L}$ is a nonlinear function of $β$ whose form is system and model dependent. Our experiments on a vertically oscillated granular layer are in accord with theory, yielding $σ_{E}\approx 0.5β$, and $σ_{L}$ a nonlinear function of $β$.
