Abstract
We consider surface-tension driven convection in a rotating uid layer. For nearly insulating boundary conditions we derive a long-wave equation for the convection planform. Using a Galerkin method and direct numerical simulations we study the stability of the steady hexagonal patterns with respect to general side-band instabilities. In the presence
