    Notes: For a critical binary liquid mixture where the surface tension difference between the two components is very large, the component with the lowest surface tension completely saturates the liquid-vapor surface. The variation in the local volume fraction v(z), with depth z into the liquid mixture, is described by a universal surface scaling function P±≡P±(z/ξ±), which takes differing forms in the one- (+) and two-phase (−) regions, where ξ represents the bulk correlation length. Carpenter et al. [Phys. Rev. E 59, 5655 (1999); 61, 532 (2000)] determined P± using the ellipsometric critical adsorption data of four different critical binary liquid mixtures. A deficiency of this prior study was that each of the liquid mixtures possessed at least one polar component, which could have generated distortions in the function P±(z/ξ±). In this publication, we demonstrate that P±, determined in the previous study, provides an excellent description of the nonpolar critical binary liquid mixture 1,1,2,2-tetrabromoethane+n-dodecane. © 2002 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Abstract After a brief review of dynamic correlations in equilibrium fluids, we consider the long-range correlations between the fluctuations in a fluid subjected to a large stationary temperature gradient. These long-range correlations enhance and modify the Rayleigh spectrum of the fluid. We elucidate that the modifications of the Rayleigh line are determined by the coupling of the entropy fluctuations to the transverse velocity fluctuations. Recent attempts to test the theoretical predictions with the aid of light-scattering experiments are discussed.
