We present results for the thermal conductivity and the Nernst coefficient of electron doped BaFe₂As₂ with a particular focus on exploring the nematic phase. The results show a significant sensitivity of both quantities with respect to nematic fluctuations. Interestingly, the magnitude of both the Nernst effect and the thermal conductivity exhibit a non-monotonic doping dependence where the strength of fluctuations feature a local maximum in the vicinity of optimal doping. These findings reinforce the notion that nematic fluctuations play a key role for rationalizing the nature of superconductivity in iron based superconductors.
