Experimental results are presented that show that the translational velocities of piston generated vortex rings often undergo oscillations, similar to those recently discovered for drop generated rings. An attempt has been made to minimize uncertainties by utilizing both dye and hydrogen bubbles for visualization and carefully repeating measurements on the same ring and on different realizations under the same nominal piston conditions. The results unambiguously show that under most conditions, both for laminar and turbulent rings and for rings generated from pipes and orifices, the oscillations are present. The result we have found is that oscillations in the translational velocity are always present at sufficiently high Reynolds numbers. In our opinion, this fact must be taken into account in any comprehensive theory or account of real vortex rings. (from Authors)
