Ever since the discovery of the Soret effect, numerous experimental and theoretical works
have been accomplished to understand the phenomena in terms of scientific interpretation …

Soft matter is studied with a large portfolio of methods. Light scattering and video microscopy
are the most employed at optical wavelengths. Light scattering provides ensemble-averaged …

We revisit the issue of whether thermal fluctuations are relevant for incompressible fluid
turbulence and estimate the scale at which they become important. As anticipated by …

We develop numerical schemes for solving the isothermal compressible and incompressible
equations of fluctuating hydrodynamics on a grid with staggered momenta. We develop a …

In the last 20 years, active matter has been a highly dynamic field of research, bridging
fundamental aspects of non-equilibrium thermodynamics with applications to biology …

We study diffusive mixing in the presence of thermal fluctuations under the assumption of
large Schmidt number. In this regime we obtain a limiting equation that contains a diffusive …

We consider the effects of thermal noise on the Batchelor-Kraichnan theory of high Schmidt-
number mixing in the viscous dissipation range of turbulent flows at sub-Kolmogorov scales …

We use dynamic near field scattering to measure the dynamics of concentration non
equilibrium fluctuations at the steady-state of Soret separation. The analysis reveals that …

The understanding of transport and mixing in fluids in the presence and in the absence of
external fields and reactions represents a challenging topic of strategic relevance for space …

Thermodiffusion in ternary mixtures is considered prototypic for the Soret effect of truly
multicomponent systems. We discuss ground-based measurements of the Soret coefficient …
