Abstract
The motion of a buoyant vortex ring in the direction opposite to the lifting force of a set magnitude in a wide range of variation of its initial velocity is experimentally investigated. The dynamics of its sizes is determined; the experimental results are compared with the theoretical data for homogeneous and inhomogeneous buoyant vortices in the gravity field.
