Solvent Coarsening around a Colloid upon Cooling — •Sutapa Roy1, S Dietrich1, and Ania Maciolek21Max-Planck-Institut für Intelligente Systeme, Heisenbergstr. 3, 70569 Stuttgart, Germany and IV. Institut für Theoretische Physik, Universität Stuttgart, Pfaffenwaldring 57, 70569 Stuttgart, Germany — 2Institute of Physical Chemistry, Polish Academy of Sciences, Kasprzaka 44/52, PL-01-224 Warsaw, Poland

We investigate temperature-gradient induced coarsening of a cooling binary solvent around a spherical colloidal particle, using numerical calculations and analytical theory. Our phenomenological model impersonates recent experiments in which, upon laser heating of a Janus colloid, the surrounding binary liquid mixture develops concentration gradient. Evidence of 'non-localized' coarsening is provided around a Janus colloid even if the colloid temperature is above the bulk demixing critical temperature of the solvent.
