Confinement-induced enhancement of diffusiophoretic forces on self-propellers
M. N. Popescu, S. Dietrich, G. Oshanin
We study the effect of spatial confinement on the strength of propulsive diffusiophoretic forces acting on a particle that generates density gradients by exploiting the chemical fr…
Monte Carlo simulation results for critical Casimir forces
O. Vasilyev, A. Gambassi, A. Maciolek +1
The confinement of critical fluctuations in soft media induces critical Casimir forces acting on the confining surfaces. The temperature and geometry dependences of such forces are…
Critical Casimir Effect in superfluid wetting films
A. Maciolek, A. Gambassi, S. Dietrich
Recent experimental data for the complete wetting behavior of pure 4He and of 3He-4He mixtures exposed to solid substrates show that there is a change of the corresponding film thi…
Interplay of critical Casimir and dispersion forces
Daniel Dantchev, Frank Schlesener, S. Dietrich
Using general scaling arguments combined with mean-field theory we investigate the critical () and off-critical () behavior of the Casimir forces in fluid f…
Hard-Sphere Fluids in Contact with Curved Substrates
P. Bryk, R. Roth, K. R. Mecke +1
The properties of a hard-sphere fluid in contact with hard spherical and cylindrical walls are studied. Rosenfeld's density functional theory (DFT) is applied to determine the dens…
Critical Casimir Forces in Colloidal Suspensions
F. Schlesener, A. Hanke, S. Dietrich
Some time ago, Fisher and de Gennes pointed out that long-ranged correlations in a fluid close to its critical point Tc cause distinct forces between immersed colloidal particles w…
