Soret motion of a charged spherical colloid.

The thermophoretic motion of a charged spherical colloidal particle and its accompanying cloud of counterions and coions in a temperature gradient is studied theoretically. Using the Debye-Hückel approximation, the Soret drift velocity of a weakly charged colloid is calculated analytically. For high...
