Abstract
A physical explanation of the mechanism for the fingering instability at driven contact lines is presented. Semi-quantitative predictions for the growth of the fingers as a function of time, the most unstable wavelength, and the initial growth rate are deduced. These predictions are compared with recent experiments.
