Pedagogical introduction to

the critical Casimir effect

and to our recent theoretical and

experimental investigations

(see Research interests below).



Eurphysics News 40/1 (2009) p.18




Research interests:

  • Critical behavior in confined systems:
    • Dynamics in thin films (general aspects)
    • Fluctuation-induced forces/Thermodynamic Casimir effect (equilibrium/non-equilibrium)

  • Non-equilibium collective behavior:
    • Slow dynamics and ageing phenomena at classical and quantum critical points
    • Driven diffusive systems and their phase transitions

  • Kinetic lattice-gas models for microfluidics
