Self-thermophoresis and thermal self-diffusion in liquids and gases
This paper demonstrates the existence of self-thermophoresis, a phenomenon whereby a virtual thermophoretic force arising from a temperature gradient in a quiescent single-component liquid or gas acts upon an individual molecule of that fluid in much the same manner as a “real” thermophoretic force...
