Forces Induced by Non-Equilibrium Fluctuations: The Soret-Casimir Effect
The notion of fluctuation-induced forces is generalized to the cases where the fluctuations have nonequilibrium origin. It is shown that a net force is exerted on a single flat plate that restricts scale-free fluctuations of a scalar field in a temperature gradient. This force tends to push the obje...
