When applied to binary solutions, thermal gradients lead to the generation of concentration-gradients and thus to inhomogeneous systems. While being known for more than 150 years, the molecular origins for this phenomenon are still debated,…

Colloids immersed in a critical binary liquid mixture are subject to critical Casimir forces (CCFs) because they confine its concentration fluctuations and influence the latter via effective surface fields. To date, CCFs have only been…

Thermal fluctuations tend to destroy long-range phase correlations. Consequently, bosons in a lattice will undergo a transition from a phase-coherent superfluid as the temperature rises. Contrary to common intuition, however, we show that…
