Abstract. In the original paper by Ahlers et al (2009 New J. Phys. 11 123001)
a transition was reported at a Rayleigh number Ra = Ra
4 × 1013
. For
Ra > Ra
, the Nusselt number Nu rose less rapidly with increasing Ra than
it did below Ra
. In a note added in proof the authors reported the subsequent
