The Soret effect describes diffusive motion that originates from a temperature gradient. It is
observed in mixtures of gases, liquids and even solids. Although there is a formal …

In the first part of the paper, we recall what the Soret effect is, together with its applications in
science and industry. We emphasize the need to have a reliable data base for the Soret …

Thermodiffusion, also called thermal diffusion or the Ludwig–Soret effect, describes the
coupling between a temperature gradient and a resulting mass flux in a multicomponent …

With the aim of providing reliable benchmark values, we have measured the Soret, diffusion
and thermal diffusion coefficients of the three binary mixtures of dodecane, isobutylbenzene …

A temperature gradient in a liquid mixture causes a concentration gradient through the Soret
effect. We have developed an instrument to measure the Soret effect by observing the …

The isotope effect in thermal diffusion (Soret effect) of benzene+ cyclohexane mixtures has
been investigated by a holographic grating technique. The Soret coefficient can be split into …

We have measured the Soret (ST), diffusion (D), and thermal diffusion (DT) coefficients of
three binary mixtures of dodecane (DD), isobutylbenzene (IB) and 1, 2, 3, 4 …

We report on convection in horizontal layers of an ethanol-water mixture in a rectangular
and an annular container heated from below. When the tempearature difference ΔT exceeds …

Formamide is one of the important compounds from which prebiotic molecules can be
synthesized, provided that its concentration is sufficiently high. For nucleotides and short …

We report on the development of the optical digital interferometry (ODI) technique for
measuring diffusion and Soret coefficients. The unique feature of this method is that it traces …
