We experimentally study rimming flow of a particle-laden fluid. We begin to investigate the details of the spatiotemporal segregation-band dynamics that were first documented by us elsewhere [E. Guyez and P. J. Thomas, Phys. Rev. Lett. 100, 074501 (2008)]. There exist eight relevant nondimensional parameters that must be expected to affect the drift dynamics of segregation bands in particle-laden rimming flow. Here we summarize results from experiments investigating the effects of three of these parameters that involve the particle size and the particle density. It is shown that two of the parameters are crucial to the initiation of the band drift and that bands become stationary whenever either one of the two parameters adopts values below an associated critical threshold. Based on the physical relevance of the two parameters it is concluded that the initiation of band drift is strongly affected by a competition between capillary forces and gravitational forces. The third nondimensional parameter studied...
