  text: When a binary fluid demixes under a slow temperature ramp, nucleation, coarsening
    and sedimentation of droplets lead to an oscillatory evolution of the phase-separating
    system. The advection of the sedimenting droplets is found to be chaotic. The
    flow is driven by density differences between two phases. Here, we show how image
    processing can be combined with particle tracking to resolve droplet size and
    velocity simultaneously. Droplets are used as tracer particles, and the sedimentation
    velocity is determined. Taking these effects into account, droplets with radii
    in the range of 4-40 μm are detected and tracked. Based on these data, we resolve
    the oscillations in the droplet size distribution that are coupled to the convective
    flow.
